NBC Sports • • sports
Key Points:
- The Dallas Cowboys have restructured the contracts of defensive tackle Kenny Clark, cornerback DaRon Bland, and tight end Jake Ferguson to create additional salary cap space.
- These moves have generated over $19 million in extra cap room for the 2026 season, increasing their total to more than $30 million.
- Previously, the Cowboys had about $14.2 million in cap space for 2026, so this restructuring significantly improves their financial flexibility.
- With this newfound cap space, the Cowboys are well-positioned to absorb one or more veteran contracts via trade.
- Notably, Raiders defensive end Maxx Crosby has a 2026 base salary of $30 million, suggesting the Cowboys could potentially pursue a trade for him.
