Despite the reported temptation to make a trade, the deadline came and went with no trade from the Cowboys.
Executive VP and chief operating officer Stephen Jones spoke about the Cowboys’ trade deadline activities on Wednesday at AT&T Stadium following his press conference to announce a live music event of Billy Joel and Stevie Nicks next April.
Though the Cowboys did not execute a trade before the deadline on Tuesday after acquiring defensive tackle Johnathan Hankins from the Raiders in October, Jones said there were a handful of deals that the team felt like they nearly made.
