Cowboys Re-Sign Former First-Round Pick for a Redemption Chance in 2025

Published: May 17, 2025

In a bold move, the Dallas Cowboys have re-signed defensive end Taco Charlton, their 2017 first-round pick, to a one-year, $1.2 million deal to compete for a depth role on the defensive line. The signing aims to bolster the pass rush alongside stars Micah Parsons and DeMarcus Lawrence, sparking intrigue and skepticism among fans as the Cowboys target Super Bowl LX.

Charlton, selected 28th overall in 2017, returns to Dallas after a disappointing initial stint. From 2017-2019, he recorded just 4 sacks and 46 tackles in 27 games, hampered by missed tackles and inconsistent quarterback pressure. Released in 2019, he bounced to the Dolphins, Chiefs, Steelers, and Bears, totaling 9.5 sacks across 62 career games.

“He’s matured,” said GM Jerry Jones, defending the reunion. Standing 6’6” and 270 pounds with a 4.92-second 40-yard dash, Charlton will vie with Sam Williams and Viliami Fehoko for a backup role. “He’s got a chip on his shoulder,” said Parsons, praising Charlton’s resolve.

Coming off a 7-10 season in 2024, the Cowboys are looking to revitalize their roster. Fans on X are divided, with one posting, “Taco’s back? Hope he shows up!” while another groaned, “This bust again?” With Dak Prescott leading the offense and Parsons dominating the defense, Charlton’s return could ignite a comeback—or rekindle old frustrations. Can he rewrite his Dallas story? The 2025 season will tell.

Bills Cheerleader Sues Bills Player for Sexual Harassment After He Relentlessly Flirted With Her – Despite Being Married with a Child
BUFFALO, NY – December 11, 2025 A bombshell lawsuit has just been filed in Erie County Court that has all of Western New York talking. Ashley, the 24-year-old face of the Buffalo Jills and widely regarded as the squad’s most popular and recognizable cheerleader, has officially sued a current Buffalo Bills player for what her legal team calls “persistent and unwanted sexual harassment through aggressive flirting” – even though the player is married with a young child. Court documents obtained today name 27-year-old Shane Buechele – the Bills’ third-string QB who married his high-school sweetheart Reiley in 2022 and has a 2-year-old son – as the defendant. What the lawsuit alleges: Since the start of the 2025 season, Buechele allegedly began sending Ashley private Instagram messages after every home game, complimenting her looks and performances with increasingly suggestive language. Multiple late-night phone calls (some as late as 2-3 a.m.) in which Buechele allegedly complained about his lack of playing time, “just wanted to hear her voice,” and invited her for private coffee meet-ups. Unsolicited shirtless and suggestive photos sent directly to Ashley’s phone. Repeatedly showing up “by coincidence” at community and charity events Ashley was scheduled to attend, creating unwanted one-on-one encounters. In the filing, Ashley states: “I made it crystal clear on multiple occasions that I only wanted a professional relationship and was focused on my career. He completely ignored my boundaries. The middle-of-the-night calls left me terrified and suffering from severe insomnia. This has taken a serious toll on my mental health.” Immediate fallout: The Buffalo Bills have suspended Shane Buechele indefinitely without pay pending an internal investigation. Reiley Buechele has locked all of her social media accounts and has made no public statement. Ashley’s attorney says they will seek damages “well into seven figures” and hope the case sets a precedent for better protection of NFL cheerleaders league-wide. The NFL has confirmed it is monitoring the situation closely and may impose additional discipline. One Bills Mafia is completely split: #TeamAshley supporters are demanding Buechele be cut immediately: “Married with a kid and still doing this? Disgusting.” Others are calling it an overreaction: “Flirty DMs and compliments? This feels like a money grab or a PR stunt.” The case is still in its earliest stages, with an initial court appearance expected in early 2026.
