If you follow the Cowboys, here's where things stand. COO Stephen Jones said Monday the team remains open to adding a player before the deadline, a day after Sunday's 33-30 overtime loss to the Arizona Cardinals. "We think we're close," he said.

- Next game: Sunday, Nov. 8, at Indianapolis
- Deadline: Nov. 10, two days after the Colts game
Jones said Dallas weighs what it gives up for this season against what it means for the future. Asked whether a loss in Indianapolis would push the Cowboys toward selling, he stuck to the game: "we're looking at getting better this week." Meanwhile, Dallas News asks whether the Cowboys would consider resting Porter, whose ankle injury persists. He's been excellent when he's been on the field, the paper notes.

| Player | From | Cost |
