Cowboys hope to sign wonderkid yet to make debut, Green Bay wanted him…
The Dallas Cowboys and Green Bay Packers will look to be one of the top teams in the NFC during the 2024 season. The two teams met in the 2024 playoffs and the Packers got the best of Dallas. However, that hasn’t stopped the two teams’ expectations from being through the roof this year.
As it turns out, the Cowboys feel as though a former Packers linebacker could help those expectations.
For the first three years of his career, the former seventh-round pick out of Miami remained on the Packers roster. It was in 2021 that he contributed the most to his team’s defense, when he accumulated 19 tackles and 1.5 sacks during 40 percent of the defensive snaps he was involved in. In the 2022 campaign, the lineman’s defensive snaps were cut in half, and he was released last July by the Packers.
While Garvin didn’t get an NFL gig in 2023, he ended up resurfacing with the Birmingham Stallions of the UFL. With 3.5 sacks and 20 tackles, he had an impressive season for the eventual league champs.
