NFC East News: Cowboys agree to 3-year deal with DT Gerald McCoy

Cowboys agree to 3-year deal with DT Gerald McCoy

Championships are won in the trenches and after the Eagles added Javon Hargrave on Tuesday, the Dallas Cowboys agreed to a deal with former Bucs and Panthers defensive tackle, Gerald McCoy.

McCoy, 32, was solid for the Panthers last season and was 14th in the NFL among interior defenders with 42 total pressures.

He started all 16 games for the Carolina Panthers racking up five sacks, his lowest total since 2012.

McCoy joins a talented defensive line that has Demarcus Lawrence and Tyrone Crawford but must replace the departed Maliek Collins at defensive tackle and Robert Quinn on the edge.
