Cowboys, standout DT Osa Odighizuwa reportedly agree to $80M deal

The Dallas Cowboys and standout defensive tackle Osa Odighizuwa have agreed to a four-year, $80 million contract, ESPN and NFL Network report.

The contract includes $58 million in guaranteed money and a $20 million signing bonus, per the reports.

Odighizuwa was a bright spot on a defensive line that largely struggled last season. He was scheduled to be a free agent prior to signing his new deal. Per NFL Network, the Cowboys were planning to use the franchise tag on Odighizuwa if the two sides hadn’t reached a long-term agreement. News of the contract broke hours before Tuesday’s franchise-tag deadline.
