Kyle Kosier Agrees to New Deal With Dallas Cowboys
The Dallas Cowboys have agreed to terms with left guard Kyle Kosier, solidifying that side of the offensive line after re-signing left tackle Doug Free a day earlier. Kosier has been the Cowboys’ starter at left guard since 2006, but was hobbled by injury last season. Kosier played exceptionally well alongside Free in Free’s first season as a starter and Dallas head coach Jason Garrett says he thinks the two will continue to improve as they go forward with their new contracts. Kosier agreed to a three-year deal worth approximately $9 million.
