Zack Martin, a cornerstone of the Dallas Cowboys for 11 seasons, officially retired in a heartfelt ceremony that highlighted his journey with the team. With comedic moments referencing the 2014 draft, where he was selected over Johnny Manziel, Martin expressed gratitude for the opportunity given to him by the Jones family. A seven-time All-Pro, his career was marked by extraordinary consistency and dedication to the Cowboys. Despite injuries, he finished strong, reflecting on his pride in a single-team career and the challenges faced along the way.

In his poignant farewell, Martin noted the absence of a championship as a key regret, joining the ranks of notable Cowboys who fell short in the playoffs. Surrounded by teammates past and present, including Dak Prescott and Tony Romo, he shared his commitment to the Cowboys and the sacrifices made throughout his career. The ceremony underscored Martin's impact on the franchise and set the stage for his potential enshrinement in the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

Dak Prescott and the Dallas Cowboys have agreed to a contract restructure, providing the team with $36 million in salary cap relief as they prepare for the upcoming free agency period. Prescott's original deal, a four-year, $240 million contract with $231 million guaranteed, included a potential exit option after the 2027 season. Last season, Prescott was limited to eight games following a hamstring injury that required surgery. Before the injury, he completed 64.7% of his passes, accumulating 1,978 yards with 11 touchdowns and eight interceptions.
