Stopping the run is a top focus area for the Dallas Cowboys defense entering 2024 and the linebacker room will play a major role in ensuring that there is improvement. In anticipation of Leighton Vander Esch officially retiring from the NFL, the Cowboys added their only outside free agent signing, LB Eric Kendricks. The experienced veteran baton has now been passed from Vander Esch to Kendricks to help mentor the other young LBs, including Damone Clark and DeMarvion Overshown. Even though signing Kendricks helps fill a substantial need, it may not be enough and the Cowboys would do well to add depth in the draft.
