Smith put in the work to get his life in order and attempt an NFL comeback. The Dallas Cowboys have rarely met a redemption project they didn’t like, so Aldon got that chance here and put in a surprisingly productive season.  After 2020 ended, Jerry Jones’s public comments left little question about he perceives Smith:  “It’s inspirational to see a man like Aldon Smith have the comeback here that he had. He played some outstanding football for us. He certainly was more positive than not, and I think he can take this year and build on it, and we want him to build on it to the benefit of the Cowboys.”  Smith’s name will be among the top free agents for the Cowboys in 2021. While Dak Prescott will certainly dominate the headlines, Aldon may be right below him over the likes of Chidobe Awuzie, Sean Lee, Xavier Woods, and Tyrone Crawford.
