Tyron Smith cut by the Cowboys; Jets interested?

The Dallas Cowboys’ Tyron Smith era is drawing to an end.

Following 13 seasons in Texas and two selections to the first team of the All-Pro squad, the eight-time Pro Bowl tackle will not re-sign with the Cowboys this offseason, according to Ian Rappaport of NFL Network on Saturday.

The Tyron Smith era with the Dallas Cowboys is coming to an end.

Ian Rappaport of NFL Network reported on Saturday that the eight-time Pro Bowl tackle will not be re-signing with the Cowboys this offseason after spending 13 seasons in Texas and being selected twice for the first team of the All-Pro squad.

In the event that Bahktiari and Smith are the front-runners, Smith’s past with the Cowboys may not be as compelling as the former’s rapport with Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers.

The New York Jets will have plenty of time this offseason to negotiate with some of the best players at key areas of need, even though there are still a few weeks till free agency begins.

Due to injuries and poor play in 2023, New York went through four different left tackles. The offensive line, which used 13 different players in various combinations over the season, was the sole factor that highlighted the alterations.

This is where things could get complicated by Smith’s impending free agency.

The former Cowboy might not be the person that New York wants at tackle if they want to keep him healthy for the entire 17 games. Smith’s knee, back, and ankle problems have prevented him from playing more than 13 games in a season since 2019.

However, a common thread with practically every eligible free-agent tackle is injury worries. More so when contrasting Smith’s performance with that of offensive tackle David Bahktiari of the Green Bay Packers.

Due to his high salary budget hit and history of injuries, Bahktiari is anticipated to be released by the Packers this offseason. This means the Jets may be able to select two players who are past their prime while also potentially resolving their tackle issues.
