Amari Cooper’s 2022 salary is fully guaranteed after the fifth day of the league year in March under his current five-year, $100 million contract with the Dallas Cowboys that was signed in March 2020.
The Cowboys have minimal time to come to a decision on whether or not they will retain Cooper on the roster for the 2022 NFL season. But after June 1, Dallas will only be on the hook for $2 million of dead money on Cooper’s contract.
After only catching 68 passes for 865 yards and eight touchdowns, some in Dallas are pondering their prospects if they were to deal Cooper out.
While Cowboys owner Jerry Jones maintains that he intends to keep the contract as is, it’s interesting to think about different locations that would benefit both parties were he to be dealt by Dallas.
