Mingo was selected in the second round of the 2023 NFL draft as he was a top wide receiver prospect coming out of Ole Miss. In his career, Mingo only has 55 catches for 539 yards and two rushes for 35 yards. In nine games played this season, Mingo has just 12 catches for 121 yards.

Upon learning that their team sent the Panthers a fourth-round pick in exchange for Mingo, Cowboys fans lost their minds on social media. Many fans questioned what Jerry Jones is doing and think the Cowboys got robbed in the trade.
Here's how fans reacted:
"Jerry Jones needs to fire himself. Cowboys buying is completely ridiculous," one fan replied.
"Jerry sucks at his job," a fan said.
"How do you give up more for Mingo than you get for Coop," a fan questioned.
Jerry Jones made an appearance on 105.3 The Fan this morning and said that the team would be acquiring a wide receiver. He was true to his word as news broke shortly after of the team acquiring Mingo.
As soon as fans heard the receiver that their team traded for was Mingo, they criticized Jerry Jones for hyping it up, thinking they were getting a different player.
Here's how other fans reacted:
"This is this trade Jerry was hyping up??" one fan questioned.
"lmao Jerry said they were targeting a WR but really? bruh is he trying to tank on purpose at this point?" a fan questioned.
"What a f**king waste of a 4th round pick man Jesus f**king christ lol," a fan wrote.
Who are some other candidates as the NFL trade deadline is hours away?
