Report: Cowboys TE Dalton Schultz to skip voluntary OTAs, ‘frustrated by state of contract talks’

The Dallas Cowboys had a number of roster decisions to make when this offseason began and made a sequence of choices that led us to where they are at now. One of the choices that the Cowboys front office made was to franchise tag Dalton Schultz at a value just south of $11M for the 2022 season. Given the way that this team operates it has never felt particularly likely that Dallas is interested in paying long-term money to Schultz, but surprises happen all of the time. The Cowboys did hedge the future of the tight end position by drafting Jake Ferguson in the fourth round of this year’s draft.
