The Dallas Cowboys officially signed S Malik Hooker to a contract on Tuesday and placed OL Mitch Hyatt (knee) on injured reserve, according to Todd Archer.
Hooker worked out for the Cowboys, Steelers and Dolphins during the offseason.
Hooker, 25, is a former first-round pick of the Colts back in 2017. He just finished the final year of his four-year, $12.6 million contract that’s fully guaranteed and made a base salary of $2.18 million in 2020.
The Colts declined Hooker’s fifth-year option for the 2021 season, which allowed him to become an unrestricted free agent this offseason.
In 2020, Hooker appeared in two games and recorded seven tackles and no interceptions.
