The Buffalo Bills traded cornerback Kaiir Elam and a 2025 sixth-round pick to the Dallas Cowboys in exchange for a 2025 fifth- and 26 seventh-round selection, the team announced Wednesday.

A fresh start in Dallas could help Elam, who recorded two interceptions as a rookie but has struggled in moments since Buffalo drafted him 23rd overall in 2022. He was a healthy scratch on multiple occasions during his Bills stint.

The 23-year-old leaves Buffalo with 81 tackles, six pass breakups, and two interceptions in 29 appearances across three seasons.

In Dallas, he joins a cornerback depth chart headlined by Trevon Diggs and DaRon Bland. Adding depth to the secondary was a priority for the Cowboys after they lost corner Jourdan Lewis to the Jacksonville Jaguars this offseason.
