Andrew Booth Ready to Step Aside if Shavon Revel Shines
Dallas, TX – June 19, 2025 – Cowboys cornerback Andrew Booth is keeping it real. With rookie Shavon Revel turning heads, the former second-round pick says he’s ready to “pass the torch” if the newbie proves he’s got the juice. Talk about team spirit!
Revel, Dallas’ third-round steal in the 2025 NFL Draft, is back from an ACL tear and looking fierce in minicamp. At 6’2” with lockdown press skills, he’s got Cowboys Nation hyped. But his rise could bump Booth, who’s on the last year of a $2M deal, off the roster. After a quiet 2024 with just 118 defensive snaps, Booth’s spot in the secondary is shaky, especially with Trevon Diggs and DaRon Bland leading the charge.

“I’m here to compete, but if Shavon’s the guy, I’m all for it,” Booth told reporters, per @CowboysWire on X. “Kid’s got crazy potential. I’ll do whatever helps us win.” That’s big talk from the ex-Vikings pick, who’s fighting to stay on the depth chart alongside Kaiir Elam and Caelen Carson.
DC Matt Eberflus loves Revel’s upside, and with Micah Parsons’ contract talks heating up, Dallas might cut Booth to save cash. Fans are torn—@BloggingTheBoys says Booth’s a “low-risk keep,” but others see Revel as the future. Training camp in July will settle it. For now, Booth’s all class, ready to grind or step aside for the rookie phenom. That’s the Cowboy way!
