Cowboys rework the contracts of Sean Lee and Orlando Scandrick
The Cowboys and Sean Lee have agreed to reworked deal in which the linebacker can earn up to $2 million in a roster bonus after he missed out on an escalator last season by sitting out the final game with a hamstring injury. Lee will earn an extra $125,000 per game, according to Todd Archer of ESPN. The Cowboys also re-worked the contract of Orlando Scandrick to clear more space.
The Cowboys restructured the contract of CB Orlando Scandrick, turning $4m of his $5m in base salary into signing bonus to create cap room
