The Cowboys agreed to terms with veteran outside linebacker Von Miller on Sunday. He is expected in camp on Monday night and will begin the ramp-up process on Tuesday.
B.T. Jordan, a pass rush consultant for the Cowboys, is the personal pass rush coach for Miller. Jordan vouched for the 37-year-old Miller, who had nine sacks last season while playing 37 percent of the snaps in 17 games.
"You get someone that's been there and done that," Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said of Miller, via Tommy Yarrish of the team website. "He trains with our consulting trainer, and boy, [Jordan] had been telling us for all this past year, 'Boy if we could get [Miller].' He knew first-hand because he works with him all the time and knew that he could help us. And of course, that trainer is working with all of our guys. We feel real good.
"We've really been communicating with him for a lot of weeks here. [Jordan] couldn't say enough good things about what kind of shape he's in, how much quickness he has, how he thought he could really help us."
The Cowboys have hinted at a "substantive" trade for a defensive player since training camp opened, and Jones said Miller's signing doesn't change that.
