RANDY GREGORY

The Dallas Cowboys are testing character in the second round again by drafting Mississippi edge rusher Sam Williams.

George Paton was so convinced that Randy Gregory's troubles are behind him that he ponied up $70 million for the pass rusher with a suspension-filled seven-year stint in Dallas. “We talked to a lot of people within the Cowboys organization, people who have been around Randy and his path and we felt like we knew him and then when we spoke with him, really felt good about it,” the Broncos general manager said Friday. Gregory has stayed out of trouble since being activated from the commissioner's exempt list on Oct. 20, 2020.

Two people with knowledge of the deal say the Dallas Cowboys have agreed on a long-term contract with receiver Michael Gallup a day after trading Amari Cooper to Cleveland.

When Dallas ran a quarterback keeper in the closing seconds of Sunday's NFL playoff game, the failed call instantly joined the ranks of dumb decisions

Dak Prescott and the Dallas Cowboys couldn't take advantage of a home playoff game.

The Dallas Cowboys made good on coach Mike McCarthy’s guarantee by holding on to beat Washington 27-20 and snap their rival’s winning streak at four.

New York’s postseason chances hinged on Philadelphia beating Washington later Sunday, but the Eagles flopped in a 20-14 loss. Hardly how first-year coach Joe Judge planned it, but there were no complaints about extending the season for at least a few more hours. Limited to 26 points over its previous three games, the Giants’ 31st-ranked offense busted out with 239 yards and 20 points in the first half. Giants: Williams had seven tackles, three sacks and hit the quarterback five times. Giants: LB Blake Martinez left the game briefly after appearing to injure his left ankle or foot in the third quarter.
