The Dallas Cowboys and free-agent wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders share a mutual interest, sources told Jane Slater of NFL Network.

Sanders split last season between the Denver Broncos and the San Francisco 49ers. The 33-year-old racked up 66 catches for 869 yards and five touchdowns in 16 games.

The Cowboys reportedly re-signed top wideout Amari Cooper to a five-year, $100-million deal, but are in need of further reinforcements at the position after losing Randall Cobb to the Houston Texans.

Sanders would likely slot into the No. 3 role in Dallas behind Cooper and Michael Gallup. The latter racked up 1,107 yards and six touchdowns in his second NFL season.
