The Cowboys and Jones have a well-established relationship with Deion Sanders. ESPN's Adam Schefter cited them as a team that could select Shedeur during the network's day two coverage (h/t Nick Geddes of On3.com).

Shedeur Sanders falling to Day 3 of the 2025 NFL Draft is one of the wildest draft storylines in recent memory. Sanders was initially touted to be the second-best quarterback of this class and many expected him to be the second quarterback off the board after Cam Ward.

Alabama offensive guard Tyler Booker was selected with the No. 12 overall pick in the first round of the 2025 NFL draft by the Dallas Cowboys.
