Report: Cowboys plan on picking up Joe Looney’s option even as Travis Frederick returns to health

The Dallas Cowboys were rocked just before the 2018 season began by the news of Travis Frederick having an autoimmune disease. This isn’t exactly the type of thing that teams can be prepared for, which is what makes Joe Looney all the more incredible.

Looney took over at center for the team and played very well throughout the entire season. He served as a prime example of “insurance” at a position and did so at the all-important position of center. According to 105.3 The Fan’s Mike Fisher, Looney will be around through the 2019 season.
