IRVING, Texas – The Cowboys continued their trend of retaining their own players on Friday, as they signed linebacker Kyle Wilber to a two-year contract.
The terms of the deal aren’t currently known, but it allows the Cowboys to hold on to a key defensive contributor and one of their core special teamers.
It’s been an interesting ride for Wilber since he was selected in the fourth round of the 2012 NFL Draft. At the time, Dallas still played a 3-4 defense and Wilber projected as an outside linebacker. One year after he was drafted, the Cowboys switched to their current 4-3 system – giving Wilber an ambiguous future.
