Dallas, TX – September 18, 2025
The 32-year-old compared his current situation to 2020, when he joined the Tennessee Titans late and still managed to play right away. He expressed confidence the transition will not hinder his readiness for Sunday.
Clowney will join the Cowboys for his first official practice on Wednesday. Offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer told reporters the team is keeping all options open and would not rule out Clowney suiting up this weekend.
Dallas turned to Clowney after trading superstar pass rusher Micah Parsons to the Green Bay Packers. While some see him as a direct replacement, Clowney stressed he intends to play his own style within the Cowboys’ scheme.
“I’m not here to be anyone else,” Clowney said. “I’m here to play my game, rush the passer, and help this team win. That’s all I’ve ever wanted to do.”
Last season with the Carolina Panthers, Clowney posted 5.5 sacks while playing in all 17 games. His veteran presence and versatility are viewed as crucial for a Dallas defense adjusting to life without Parsons.
Ultimately, Sunday could mark the beginning of an important new chapter for Clowney. For the Cowboys, his debut represents not just added firepower, but also a statement that the team remains determined to chase NFC supremacy
