Report: Cowboys seeking WR help, eyed Parker before trade

The Dallas Cowboys remain interested in bolstering their wide receiver corps, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter.

The Cowboys were among the teams pursuing former Miami Dolphins wideout DeVante Parker before the New England Patriots acquired him Saturday, Schefter reports.

Dallas' receiving group has undergone a makeover this offseason. The club traded Amari Cooper and lost Cedrick Wilson to the Dolphins in free agency but opted to re-sign Michael Gallup to a five-year deal and brought in former Pittsburgh Steelers receiver James Washington on a one-year pact.

However, Gallup is recovering from a torn ACL suffered in January, and his timetable for the 2022 campaign is unclear.

The shuffling places CeeDee Lamb at the top of the team's receiver depth chart. The 2020 first-rounder caught 79 passes for 1,102 yards and six touchdowns last season.

There are still numerous veteran pass-catchers on the market, such as Julio Jones, Odell Beckham Jr., A.J. Green, and Jarvis Landry, among others.

The Cowboys hold the 24th overall selection in this year's draft. Garrett Wilson, Chris Olave, Jameson Williams, and Treylon Burks are among the top receiver prospects.
