Cowboys trade for Jonathan Mingo: Dallas acquires Panthers WR after Jerry Jones promises to 'buy' at deadline
Dallas Cowboys acquire Jonathan Mingo after Jerry Jones's promises at the trade deadline.
The Dallas Cowboys have acquired wide receiver Jonathan Mingo from the Carolina Panthers in exchange for a conditional 2024 NFL Draft pick, the team announced Tuesday.
The move comes after Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said earlier this week that the team would be "buyers" at the NFL trade deadline, which is set for Tuesday, Nov. 1.
Mingo, 28, has 23 catches for 221 yards and two touchdowns this season. He has started all nine games for the Panthers, who are 2-7 and in last place in the NFC South.
Mingo could be a valuable addition to the Cowboys' offense.
Mingo is a big, physical receiver who can make contested catches. He also has good speed and can stretch the field vertically.
The Cowboys have been looking for a receiver to complement CeeDee Lamb and Michael Gallup. Mingo could fill that role, and he could also help take some of the pressure off of quarterback Dak Prescott.
The Cowboys are hoping that Mingo can help them make a playoff push. They are currently 6-3 and in first place in the NFC East.
The Panthers are getting a conditional 2024 NFL Draft pick in return for Mingo.
The exact details of the pick are not yet known, but it is likely to be a late-round pick.
The Panthers are rebuilding, and they are likely willing to part with Mingo for a future draft pick.
The trade is a win-win for both teams. The Cowboys get a talented receiver who can help them make a playoff push, and the Panthers get a future draft pick that they can use to build their team.
