In a stunning turn of events, star cornerback Amani Oruwariye is not expected to suit up for the Dallas Cowboys in 2025, leaving fans and analysts alike in shock. Sources close to the team revealed that Oruwariye has been grappling with a persistent foot injury, a condition that has ultimately derailed his future with the Cowboys.
Once seen as a cornerstone of Dallas’s defense, Oruwariye’s exit comes amid whispers of uncertainty regarding his ability to maintain peak performance. The injury, which reportedly worsened over the course of the 2024 season, has left the 27-year-old star facing significant challenges both on and off the field. As he enters unrestricted free agency (UFA) in 2025, speculation is rife about whether he will continue his NFL career or shift his focus to recovery.
The Cowboys organization has yet to release an official statement, but sources suggest that discussions about Oruwariye’s future were held behind closed doors for months. “It’s a tough loss for us,” a team insider shared. “Amani’s talent and leadership have been invaluable, but we also need to consider his health and what’s best for his career.”
Fans have taken to social media to express their disappointment, with many questioning how this will impact the team’s already thin secondary. Oruwariye himself has remained silent, fueling even more speculation about what lies ahead for the former Pro Bowl contender.
With free agency on the horizon, the NFL world is watching closely to see where Oruwariye’s journey takes him next. One thing is certain: his departure marks the end of an era for the Dallas Cowboys’ defense, leaving a gaping hole that will not be easily filled.
