Amari Cooper gave the Dallas Cowboys some reassurance on Thursday night ahead of his free agency.

"I love being a Dallas Cowboy," the 25-year-old wide receiver said during an appearance on 105.3 The Fan's Nosebleed Seats. "I love everything about it. I think about it every day. Just the aura of being a Dallas Cowboy, you can't beat it. I want to be a Cowboy for life."

The NFL's deadline to apply the franchise tag is March 12, and Cooper said in late January that "nothing would surprise me" when asked about the possibility of the Cowboys tagging him.
