History

Historical Context

The NFL established a trade deadline in 1989, significantly altering team strategies. Notably, the Dallas Cowboys traded star running back Herschel Walker to the Minnesota Vikings in an 18-player deal, which became one of the most lopsided trades in sports history. This trade laid the groundwork for the Cowboys' future success, including three Super Bowl victories in the 1990s.
