Addition by subtraction could spark promise for the Dallas Cowboys

Over the last few days the Dallas Cowboys cut ties with three outsider free agents brought in for the 2020 season. Everson Griffen (281 snaps), Dontari Poe (266 snaps), and Daryl Worley (261 snaps) all had a significant hand in the defense’s failings.

Griffen (20 tackles, 2.5 sacks) wasn’t awful, yet his production didn’t match his recent past. The scheme fit never seemed to gel and he voiced it publicly on a few occasions. Poe was a shell of himself and net negative on the field.
