$2.7 million fan favorite facing roster extinction after free agency flood at his position

Dallas Cowboys fans felt like their team had uncovered a golden nugget following the 2023 NFL draft. T.J. Bass, an Oregon product, was two-time First-Team All-Conference player in the Pac-12. He received $150,000 worth of guarantees as one of the team's premier undrafted free agents, then went out and proved his worth, making the initial 53-man roster as a rookie. Bass started two games as a rookie, and another three in his second season, but entering his third year he's going to have to prove himself to a new regime. The head-coaching switch from Mike McCarthy to Brian Schottenheimer means there's a new staff of position coaches, and Klayton Adams and Conor Riley went out and found several new bodies to work in the potential scheme change.

The latter is going to be moved inside. The team also brought back ERFA Brock Hoffman, who beat out Bass for the primary interior backup role last summer.
