Cowboys weigh potential contract extensions for three key 2026 contributors
Summary

The Dallas Cowboys could look to secure long-term deals for three key players during the 2026 regular season. Tight end Brevyn Spann-Ford has established himself as a reliable option behind Jake Ferguson, warranting interest in a team-friendly extension. Receiver Ryan Flournoy also remains a target for a new contract to provide roster stability, particularly with the uncertain status of George Pickens after this season. On the defensive side, lineman Otito Ogbonnia has emerged as a starter in the base defense after signing a one-year deal this past offseason. While it is rare for the organization to finalize extensions during the regular season, these three players represent potential priorities for the front office. Locking them in now could allow the team to avoid restricted free agency hurdles or rising market prices in future offseasons.
