Good business or playing with fire: The Cowboys handling of the Tyron Smith decision

The Dallas Cowboys’ front office has faced much scrutiny this offseason. There are many reasons for this, but most of the frustration is due to letting too many of their players leave without replenishing their losses. No decision has created as much angst as the decision to move on from veteran left tackle Tyron Smith. After coming off one of his best seasons in many years, it’s a little distressing to imagine the team without his services for the first time in 14 years, but here we are. Smith held down the most critical offensive line position at left tackle, protecting the blindside of the franchise quarterback, Dak Prescott.
