Dallas has added experienced pass rusher Jonathan Bullard to their defensive lineup, with his representative confirming Saturday that the veteran defensive end has agreed to a one-year contract worth $2.5 million with the Cowboys.
The 32-year-old defender spent the 2024 season with New Orleans, where he registered 26 tackles across 15 appearances, including six games as a starter for the Saints.
Throughout his eight-year NFL career spanning 131 games with 59 starts, Bullard has accumulated 6.5 quarterback sacks, 247 total tackles, 32 tackles behind the line of scrimmage, 10 pass breakups, and two forced fumbles. His professional journey has taken him through Chicago (2016-18), Arizona (2019), Seattle (2020), Atlanta (2021), Minnesota (2022-24), and most recently New Orleans. The Bears selected him in the third round of the 2016 NFL Draft.
There’s already a connection between Bullard and Dallas leadership, as Cowboys head coach Brian Schottenheimer previously served as Seattle’s offensive coordinator during Bullard’s 2020 season with the Seahawks.
