Former Dallas Cowboys Lineman Dorance Armstrong Signs with Washington Commanders
Former Dallas Cowboys lineman Dorance Armstrong has found a new home with the Washington Commanders. Armstrong, a talented defensive lineman, is set to reunite with Dan Quinn, the former defensive coordinator of the Cowboys who is now the head coach of the Commanders.
The move to Washington puts Armstrong in direct competition with his former team in the NFC East, ensuring that he will face off against the Cowboys at least twice a season. Armstrong, who was a fourth-round pick in 2018 out of Kansas, began his career with the Cowboys as a rotational pass rusher.
Despite facing multiple coaching changes during his time with the Cowboys, Armstrong has emerged as one of the league’s top young pass rushers. He has racked up impressive stats, including 21 sacks in the last three seasons, along with numerous quarterback pressures and forced fumbles.
With his talent and versatility, Armstrong has proven to be a valuable asset both on defense and special teams. His ability to disrupt opposing offenses has made him a key piece of the Cowboys’ defense.
As he enters negotiations for his third NFL contract at just 26 years old, Armstrong’s decision to join Quinn in Washington highlights the impact he has made in the league. His presence on the Commanders’ defense is sure to bolster their pass rush and overall defensive performance.
