ESPN’s Adam Schefterย is reporting that the Cowboys will restructure OTย Doug Free‘s contract to free up some extra cap space.
Free, 29, signed a four-year deal worth $32 million that included $17 million guaranteed back in 2011.
He’s been very disappointing since then and has been mentioned as a possible release candidate for months now. Apparently, the Cowboys feel as though he’s still salvageable. We’ll have to see if they move him to guard next year.
The Cowboys could always free up additional cap space by working out long-term contract extensions for QB Tony Romo and DE Anthony Spencer.
