Dallas Cowboys, Jaydon Blue agree to rookie contract

The Dallas Cowboys continue to sign players from their impressive 2025 NFL draft class, and now only one player remains unsigned. On Monday, Dallas agreed to terms with fifth-round running back Jaydon Blue, who many believe can be an impact player from Day 1.

According to ESPN's Todd Archer, Blue agreed to a four-year, $4.627 million deal. The deal includes a $427,068 signing bonus.

Pairing Blue with seventh-round pick Phil Mafah out of Clemson, who is more of a bruiser, provides an intriguing one-two punch for Dallas out of the backfield.

The team also has veterans Javonte Williams and Miles Sanders in the revamped running back room, though Sanders could be on the roster bubble after the additions of Blue and Mafah in the draft.

It's going to be a fun 2025 season for the revamped Cowboys offense.
