The Dallas Cowboys have had quite the offseason so far, and as expected, the approach of their front office has been met with some criticism. Nevertheless, there’s still work to be done, in particular with the wide receiver corps. A name that’s still out there following the early, headline-grabbing waves of NFL free agency is that of four-time Pro Bowl wide receiver, T.Y. Hilton.

It’s been a rough go for the Cowboys’ front office in 2022. However, it was a foregone conclusion that the Cowboys were likely going to be more “sellers” than “buyers,” a notion backed up by Amari Cooper’s jettisoning from Dallas. A move that leaves the team short-handed despite having Michael Gallup back and with CeeDee Lamb now clearly the number one option.

Rumors: Ty Hilton is allegedly drawing some interest from the #Cowboys, says @PatMcAfeeShow

The Cowboys might be able to land Hilton on a relatively cheap contract

Jerry Jones is lucky in the sense that there are quality options available that could be had for a comparably low price. According to Bleacher Report, Hilton, for example, could cost Dallas around $5.5 million on a one-year deal. Considering how much wide receivers have gone for this offseason, it’d be a bargain all things considered.

Hilton has had health issues in the last few years and has seen his production dramatically drop in comparison to past seasons. The last time he cracked 1,000-plus yards was in 2018, but in his defense, he only had one drop after being targeted 37 times.

In this conjecture of his career, no one will confuse Hilton as a deep threat anymore. Be that as it may, he’s still reliable and can still be effective in the middle and could surely be a solid option for intermediate passes. A group made up of Lamb, Gallup, James Washington, and Hilton would be a solid one for Dak Prescott.
