Jaydon Blue, the rookie running back from Texas, has officially signed a four-year contract with the Dallas Cowboys following his selection in the fifth round of the 2025 NFL Draft. The deal is worth $4.627 million, complemented by a signing bonus of $427,068. Blue, who had a productive collegiate season with 730 rushing yards and 8 touchdowns, shared the backfield with Quintrevion Wisner at Texas, showcasing his versatility as a runner and pass-catcher.

This signing adds depth to the Cowboys' backfield as they prepare for the upcoming season. Blue's ability to impact both the rushing and passing game could be crucial as he competes for playing time alongside established veterans. With a solid foundation from his college career, he aims to make a significant impression during training camp and beyond.
