2 Mar
Summary
- Free agency legal tampering begins March 9, 2026, with official signings on March 11.
- Dallas has extended Javonte Williams and franchised George Pickens.
- The team has offensive tackle needs and significant defensive upgrades required.
NFL free agency is set to officially commence on Wednesday, March 11, 2026, at 4 p.m. ET, following the opening of the legal tampering period on Monday, March 9, 2026. During this initial period, teams can negotiate and agree to terms with potential free agents.
Dallas has already taken steps to retain core players, extending running back Javonte Williams and placing the franchise tag on wide receiver George Pickens. The team also plans to tender restricted free agent T.J. Bass. Despite these moves, Dallas aims to restructure contracts to create cap space for further acquisitions.
Offensively, the team appears largely set, with tackle identified as their primary weakness, seeking depth or competition. Defensively, however, Dallas faces a broader need for reinforcements, particularly in pass rush, linebacker, cornerback, and safety positions.
