The Cowboys are taking a flier on Anthony Barr.
Dallas agreed to terms with the former Vikings linebacker on a contract Wednesday, as first reported by NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo. The deal is a one-year pact, according to The Athletic’s Jon Machota.
The Vikings allowed Barr to leave as a free agent after last season. Minnesota is carrying approximately $10 million in dead cap space this season due to a previously restructured contract with Barr, per Over the Cap.
Barr was the No. 9 pick in the 2014 NFL draft out of UCLA.
