The Cowboys brought Lee back on a one-year, $4.5 million contract that included $2 million fully guaranteed last March.
For his career, Lee appeared in 118 games over 11 seasons with the Cowboys and recorded 804 tackles, four sacks, two forced fumbles, five recoveries, 14 interceptions, including two returned for touchdowns, and 30 pass defenses.
