There’s nothing wrong with sticking to what you know. And for the Dallas Cowboys, it was more a matter of “who you know” when it came to the re-signing of veteran linebacker Justin Durant on Thursday.

Durant gives the Cowboys a veteran presence who already knows their system and can be a plug and play option at a moment’s notice. The 31-year old has played three seasons total in Dallas with a one-year lay over in Atlanta with the Falcons back in 2015 sandwiched in between.

Last season, Durant recorded 37 total tackles, three pass defends and a sack in 13 games coming off the bench for Dallas.
