- NFC East News: Cowboys acquire a $36M tackling machine ahead of the NFL trade deadline
In a move that should improve an awful defense, the Cowboys are finalizing a trade to acquire Bengals middle linebacker Logan Wilson . Wilson requested a trade and has been benched in favor of emerging rookies. Wilson has started all seven games to this point in the season, but he's logged just 19.7 and 45.6 percent of the defensive snaps in each of the past two contests, according to CBS Sports. The Bengals have moved in the direction of rookies Barrett Carter and Demetrius Knight at linebacker.
Wilson has been taken off the field in any two-linebacker sets and didn't play any defensive snaps in the second half aside from a kneel-down in the final minutes of recent games.
