The Dallas Cowboys significantly bolstered their roster ahead of the 2025 offseason by extending defensive tackle Osa Odighizuwa and restructuring wide receiver CeeDee Lamb's contract. Odighizuwa's new four-year, $80 million deal, with $58 million guaranteed, allows the Cowboys financial flexibility while keeping a key player in place. Additionally, restructuring Lamb's contract freed up $20 million in cap space, enabling the team to sign other free agents. These moves signal a targeted approach towards team enhancement amid a previously stagnant offseason, putting the Cowboys in a strong position as they eye new talents, including nickel cornerback Jourdan Lewis.
"Had he waited for the opening of free agency on March 12, Odighizuwa could have commanded a deal closer to nine figures. Instead, his strong desire to remain in Dallas sees him take a cut with a minimal 2025 cap hit in order to allow the team to build around him next season."
"The moves allowed the Cowboys to immediately lock in two more impending free agents: special teams ace C.J. Goodwin on a one-year deal and safety Juanyeh Thomas on an exclusive rights free agent team option deal that keeps him in Dallas for 2025."
