Cowboys Rumors: Leighton Vander Esch Trade Not Planned After Micah Parsons Draft Pick

The Dallas Cowboys aren't looking to trade Leighton Vander Esch, according to NFL Network's Jane Slater.

Slater reported the Cowboys consider Vander Esch to be "still very much a part of the defensive plan next year and in the future."

Questions arose about his future with the team after the Cowboys declined his fifth-year option in May. Dallas then selected Penn State linebacker Micah Parsons with the 12th overall pick in the 2021 NFL draft.
