Report: NaVorro Bowman will visit with Cowboys after Raiders
There has reportedly been no shortage of interest in NaVorro Bowman since the San Francisco 49ers decided to release him, and the veteran linebacker already has meetings lined up with at least two contending teams.
Reports on Sunday indicated that Bowman will meet with the Oakland Raiders on Monday. After that, ESPN’s Adam Schefter has been told the 29-year-old will visit with the Dallas Cowboys.
Former 49ers LB Navorro Bowman is visiting the Raiders in Monday and then is planning to visit the Cowboys, per source.

Both teams are in need of depth at the linebacker position. Cowboys defensive leader Sean Lee, who has battled injuries throughout his career, has already missed time this season with a hamstring injury. Fellow Dallas linebacker Anthony Hitchens has also missed multiple games.
The 49ers apparently had an agreement in place to trade Bowman to another team, but they decided to instead release him so he can choose his next destination.
