The Dallas Cowboys have not been quiet about expressing interest in Odell Beckham Jr.

OBJ might be on the verge of a comeback after suffering a torn ACL in Super Bowl LVI and several teams have publicly shown interest in signing the free agent wide receiver. Among those teams — and perhaps the loudest — is the Dallas Cowboys.

Running back Ezekiel Elliot told reporters Wednesday (November 9) just how invested he was in getting OBJ to Dallas. "That's something that we've talked about (in the locker room). We know how explosive he can be and what he can be for his offense. It'd be great to get him down here to Dallas. Another weapon in our repertoire. Hopefully we get OBJ to Dallas," he said, according to WFAA. "I'm friends with OBJ, he'd definitely fit in this locker room. ... He's a competitor, plays hard and he's obviously talented. We want him. We want OBJ."

Linebacker Micah Parsons mirrored Elliot's sentiment. "We could use him. He'd expand this offense. ... If the guy on the market, and he's talking about he wanna play and win games, well, me too. ... So come win games over here and get that bowl that you want because I want it," he said.

He also shared the same views the day before on Twitter. "Man obj talk to me !! @obj let’s do this s---!!! 🦁🦁," he said. The former LA Ram replied to the tweet saying, "Lolol sheeeed u tell me !? U kno all the fam on my daddy side down there. Im just tryna win… wheeerever I go." Parsons replied, "Defense win championships!! Don’t forget who ended that super bowl last year!! We head hunters over here!!"

Earlier this week, owner and general manager Jerry Jones said OBJ "could look pretty good" in a Cowboys uniform. "I like where we are with our receiving corps. We’ve got, of course, (James) Washington coming back, and that’s big. We got (Michael) Gallup, who in my mind, is getting better at the level we would expect him to be and improving everyday. And, of course, (CeeDee) Lamb, who we think is everything we want in our number one receiver. I like the way we’re throwing the ball with our tight ends. On the other hand, Odell is someone that we have all the appreciation in the world for who he is as a competitor and know that the Cowboy star on that helmet, when he puts it on, could look pretty good," he said in a radio interview.
