How Von Miller can boost Cowboys’ pass rush with veteran experience on defense

Von Miller gives the Dallas Cowboys a proven pass rusher at a time when their defense needs more pressure. Dallas officially added the eight-time Pro Bowler after Miller led the Washington Commanders with nine sacks in 2025. At 37, he no longer carries the workload of his prime, but his recent production shows he can still make quarterbacks uncomfortable.That makes Miller an interesting piece for Dallas rather than a player who needs to carry the defense. The Cowboys can use his experience in passing situations while allowing younger edge rushers to handle larger roles. If Miller stays productive in a focused role, his addition could give Dallas a useful boost throughout the 2026 season.Von Miller gives the Dallas Cowboys another proven pass-rush optionThe clearest reason for optimism comes from what Miller did last season.
