FRISCO - The Dallas Cowboys' backfield has undergone a complete makeover since the end of the 2024 regular season. ... but for some observers of "America's Team,'' is hasn't been enough.
Last year, this was essentially a one-man show run by Rico Dowdle ... with Ezekiel Elliott also hanging out.
Now, in free agency, Dallas both Miles Sanders and Javonte Williams and then Cowboys then added Jaydon Blue and Phil Mafah on Day 3 of the NFL Draft.
Is that enough?
Veteran free agent Nick Chubb remained unsigned all offseason long ... and he has been in the gym, posting some footage of himself going through workouts. That's helped some Cowboys fans think he should land in Texas.
And he is about to - with "the other'' Texas team.
Injuries have haunted Chubb for the past two seasons, but the Houston Texans - who already have Joe Mixon - think there is something there.
So ...
Pending him passing his physical, word is the Cleveland Browns fan favorite is signing with Houston.
At this point, the Dallas backfield is crowded with four potential contributors already in the building. One telling point on Chubb is that Cleveland completely turned the page by drafting two running backs ... just as Dallas did.
The validity of questioning the Cowboys backfield exists.
But the Chubb experiment is not happening ... at least not in this part of Texas.Come inside the Fish Report for the straight dope on your Dallas Cowboys directly from Frisco!
