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 agreed to a three-year deal worth approximately $9 million.

New NFL Salary Cap Could Hurt Dallas Cowboys’ Free Agent Spending
The new NFL collective bargaining agreement is coming together, giving fans more optimism the league will officially begin its 2011 off season by its tentative July 21 deadline. However, this new deal brings some bad news for several teams, including the Dallas Cowboys. The new CBA has set a $120 million salary cap for the 2011 season, well above the spending rate of several teams, like Dallas.
