Dallas is once again going to play the “let’s wait and see game,” this time with Dalton Schultz. As the clock expired on the deadline to sign a franchise-tagged player, the Dallas Cowboys seemed less than concerned. Schultz joins the ranks of Flozell Adams, Anthony Spencer, DeMarcus Lawrence, and Dak Prescott as players who did not receive a contract with Dallas before the deadline after being franchise tagged for the first time. Schultz is now set to be a free agent in 2023.
Luckily for Dallas, if the Stanford tight end is going to hit the open market, 2023 is a pretty good year for it.
