Former SMU wide receiver Jordan Hudson, who posted three 100-yard receiving games this season, will meet with Dallas Cowboys officials over dinner as the NFL Draft approaches.
DALLAS - Former SMU Mustangs wideout Jordan Hudson hopes to be moving on to the NFL after a successful collegiate career.
That career included a season in Fort Worth with the TCU Horned Frogs, followed by three on the Hilltop with the Mustangs.
The Garland High School alum posted 14 catches for 174 yards and three touchdowns as a freshman in Fort Worth before entering the transfer portal and committing to SMU in 2023.
That year, he appeared in all 14 contests for the Mustangs and caught 30 passes for 425 yards and seven scores. His productivity stayed consistent in 2024 with 39 balls for 422 yards and five touchdowns.
As a senior this past year, he posted a career-high 766 receiving yards on 61 catches and six scores, and earned Third-Team All-ACC honors for his work.
Hudson played in the 2026 Senior Bowl, where he posted 17 yards on a pair of receptions.
The Dallas Cowboys could be in search of depth in the wideout room.
Boasting maybe the NFL's top one-two punch at wideout behind veterans CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens, the position thins out a bit after that.
Quarterback Dak Prescott's top targets after Lamb and Pickens were Ryan Flournoy and KaVontae Turpin, with not much else behind them.
Dallas finished 7-9-1 last season and missed the postseason for the second straight season, and the first under new head coach Brian Schottenheimer.
The Cowboys owned a historically bad defense in 2025 that couldn't support their high-powered offense behind Prescott, Pickens and Lamb.
But that's all set to change in 2026 with the hiring of Christian Parker to lead the defense. The goal is to improve that side of the ball enough to support a potent offense that SMU's Hudson hopes to be a part of next season.
