Report: Cowboys and DeMarcus Lawrence haven’t reached long-term deal, franchise tag imminent

One of the biggest points, not questions but points, of this offseason for the Dallas Cowboys has been the expiring contract of DeMarcus Lawrence.

DLaw racked up 14.5 sacks last season, which was just lovely considering it was a contract year for him. He reportedly wants $17M per season, but according to Adam Schefter he and the Cowboys aren’t seeing eye to eye currently. The franchise tag cometh.

Cowboys and DE DeMarcus Lawrence will not reach a long-term deal before Tuesday’s franchise deadline, per source. Dallas has said it will place franchise tag on Lawrence if no long-term deal reached.
