As the Dallas Cowboys hype has died down after the Week 1 loss to the New York Giants on Sunday night, 28-20, there is still a whole season for the team to reach the aspirations it's gunning for in 2026. After the Cowboys' Week 1 debacle against the Giants, one NFL analyst speculates what the team could look to do regarding additions, mentioning star Maxx Crosby of the Las Vegas Raiders.

Speaking on CBS Sports, Pete Prisco spoke about the issues Dallas had in the loss to New York, as the defense was a letdown, as it was many times last season. He mentioned how Jerry Jones has teased a big splash move, with one that makes sense being Crosby, a pass-rusher that could immediately impact the Cowboys.

“As bad as they played at times, they got it within one score,” Prisco said. “You got to get off the field, and that goes to my next part of this. Jerry Jones hinted last week on a radio show that they're not done, that they might make a big splash move, and so what would be the splash move before the trade deadline?”

“Could it be a guy like Crosby, Maxx Crosby, maybe?” Prisco continued. “I mean, that's something to keep an eye on because when you're in that scenario…so I think there's still a move to be made by the Cowboys.”

The NFL trade deadline is on Nov. 10, as it remains to be seen if Dallas will try to get Crosby, but in the short-term, the team looks to get its first win of the season against the Washington Commanders next Sunday.
