Cowboys Plan Second-Round RFA Tender for Guard T.J. Bass

The Dallas Cowboys are reportedly preparing to use a second-round restricted free agent tender on guard T.J. Bass, which carries a salary of $5.8 million for the 2026 season. This move allows the Cowboys to retain Bass, who has appeared in 48 games and made 10 starts over the last three seasons, while also giving them a second-round draft pick if another team signs him to an offer sheet that Dallas opts not to match. The team is also working on a multi-year deal for kicker Brandon Aubrey.
