The Cowboys claim they spend like everyone else. They’ve repeatedly leaked they’re in trouble with dead money in 2025. So what’s really going on: are the Cowboys in cap hell? How does a team not spend and end up in such a self-proclaimed bad position in 2025?

The Cowboys actually aren’t in a great cap spot for 2025 - but only if they don’t pay anyone. If they pay CeeDee Lamb, Dak Prescott and/or Micah Parsons, it creates more short-term flexibility that allows them to upgrade their roster and not be limited by what the cap hits are.

The Cowboys are more likely to win if you like the video. Don't be the guy who causes a loss!
