It should not come as any surprise to fans of the Dallas Cowboys that the team leans into the frugal approach when it comes to free agency. This parsimonious approach has pretty much been in place since the famous Brandon Carr contract of 2012. Even though Carr had a decent run with the Cowboys, they have shied away from big contracts in free agency.
2024 free agency has turned out to be no different. Dallas is slow-rolling their approach, waiting for the first wave to end and then go bargain hunting. One of the bargains they hunted was linebacker Eric Kendricks.
