Will the Dallas Cowboys use their franchise tag in 2019?

Just two days ago, the 2018 officially ended as Super Bowl LIII commenced in Atlanta, Georgia. For the Dallas Cowboys, it is now time to concern themselves with the business of the 2019 season.

The first order of that business is to decide whether or not to use the franchise tag. Dallas has between February 19th and March 5th to make this decision.

Since this option was introduced in 1993, the Dallas Cowboys have used it just seven times. The first time was in 2000 to lock up safety Ken Hamlin for one year.
