FRISCO, Texas (AP) — The Dallas Cowboys and left guard Tyler Smith have agreed on a $96 million, four-year extension, two people with knowledge of the contract said Saturday.
The agreement, which locks up the new cornerstone of the Dallas offensive line long term, includes $80 million guaranteed, the people told The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the deal hadn't been announced.
Smith is a game into his fourth season as a 2022 first-round draft pick. The 24-year-old has started since he arrived, including all 17 games at left tackle as a rookie when eight-time Pro Bowler Tyron Smith was sidelined by an injury.
The deal with Smith comes a little more than two weeks after the Cowboys traded star pass rusher Micah Parsons to Green Bay after a long contract stalemate.
