## Resource

The Dallas Cowboys just locked down two key contributors with smart, long-term extensions—wide receiver Ryan Flournoy and tight end Brevyn Spann-Ford. Spann-Ford gets a three-year, $18M deal with over $12M guaranteed, keeping him through 2029, while Flournoy secures a one-year extension potentially worth up to $6M. Both were headed for restricted free agency, making these moves a strategic win for the front office. Jerry Jones praised them as “homegrown” talents—players drafted later or undrafted who earned their spots through grit and consistency. Flournoy, a sixth-rounder waived and re-signed via practice squad, finished last season with 40 catches for 470 yards and 4 TDs. Spann-Ford, an UDFA, started five games and scored a touchdown. Jones emphasized their physicality and impact potential, highlighting how their development reflects the team’s culture of rewarding hard work and building depth from within.
