Assessing La’el Collins future with the Cowboys by looking at contracts in upcoming seasons

Last year, the Dallas Cowboys played an entire year without La’el Collins at right tackle. His absence was felt as the team filled the void by starting rookie undrafted free agent Terence Steele before then relying on moving Zack Martin to tackle, only to then go back to Steele after Martin was hurt. While the rook’s effort was admirable, it just wasn’t the same level of play they got from the veteran Collins.

What a difference a year makes.

Collins was back in action for the 2021 season opener, but has missed the last five games serving a suspension.
