4 former Dallas Cowboys that could thrive on new teams in 2022

The Dallas Cowboys lost a few free agents in the offseason, and these four players could end up finding a lot of success in their new homes

It was an interesting offseason for the Dallas Cowboys, to say the least.

For a brief moment, it looked as though they could be losing at least one of their coordinators as both Dan Quinn and Kellen Moore were hot names in the head coaching searches.

They did get them both back but then, they lost some key players in free agency. Here we look at which four are ready to have a huge impact on their new clubs.

Former Dallas Cowboys to thrive No. 4: La’el Collins, G

At one point, La’el Collins looked to be one of the best young prospects on the Cowboys line. But then when Mike McCarthy came to town in 2020, it was as though he started to trend in the wrong direction.

He also had a suspension last season, which led to him fighting with Terence Steele to get his old job back.

Once the season was over, Dallas decided to move on and save some money against the cap. Collins landed on his feet, however, as he signed on with the Cincinnati Bengals — the AFC representatives in the Super Bowl.

Collins joins a re-made line that includes Ted Karras and Alex Cappa. In fact, if these players were on the Bengals in 2021, they might very well have won it all.

Now, they look like a much better group and as long as they keep Joe Burrow upright, they will continue to have success. As for Collins, the new team will likely prove to be exactly what he needed to rediscover the player he was a few years ago.
