The Dallas Cowboys have made contract adjustments for players Jake Ferguson, DaRon Bland, and Kenny Clark to enhance their financial flexibility as they approach the 2026 NFL season. This strategy is part of a broader effort to create additional salary cap room during the offseason.
Bland and Ferguson have both signed extensions, securing their positions with the team through 2025. Bland's new four-year contract is valued at $92 million, extending his tenure with the Cowboys until 2030. Ferguson's four-year extension is worth $52 million, also keeping him with the team through 2030.
Additionally, Kenny Clark's contract has been restructured for a second time this offseason, now extending through the 2028 season.
These changes provide the Cowboys with increased options for potential roster adjustments. Team owner Jerry Jones has expressed optimism about the team's prospects, stating that they could be competitive if they avoid injuries. While the restructuring does not indicate an immediate pursuit of high-priced players, it offers the team greater flexibility for future moves and positively affects their salary cap situation for the 2027 season.
