Brevyn Spann-Ford eyes larger role with Cowboys in 2026 season

Brevyn Spann-Ford is expected to compete for the primary backup tight end position with the Dallas Cowboys during training camp this summer. After emerging as a reliable option last season, he has an opportunity to surpass teammate Luke Schoonmaker. Spann-Ford, who went undrafted in 2024, is poised to solidify his role and potentially earn a multi-year contract before becoming a restricted free agent next March. Several other tight ends are also contending for a spot, but Spann-Ford appears to have the edge over Schoonmaker. Current projections indicate a 90% chance he secures a roster position for the upcoming season.
