Thomas Traded After Cowboys Depth Shift | Dallas News

Nate Thomas, a seventh-round Cowboys draft pick from Louisiana, is headed to Houston after a surprise trade that kept him in Texas. Though he played all 17 games last season and nearly earned a starting spot, competition with veteran Tyler Guyton and rookie Drew Shelton left him on the bubble — until Dallas traded him for a seventh-rounder and added Broderick Jones. Now, Shelton and Jones will likely back up the starters, but Steele’s inconsistency could open more depth needs. The move was smart: Dallas gained a pick while clearing space for future flexibility.
