## Resource

Marquez Valdes-Scantling, 31 and entering his eighth NFL season, is chasing redemption at Dallas Cowboys training camp in 2026—offering veteran savvy and Super Bowl pedigree on a cheap one-year deal. Once a Packers rookie standout, his career has drifted through Chiefs, Bills, Saints, and a brief Rodgers reunion in Pittsburgh, with production slipping. With just a 35% chance of making the roster amid depth at receiver, Valdes-Scantling must prove age isn’t the enemy—especially if younger players like Jonathan Mingo falter. Can he reignite his old fire and carve out a role in Dallas’ offense? The Cowboys are betting he can, for less than $1.2 million.
