Depth on the offensive line is a need for Dallas, they are looking at free agent targets.
The Dallas Cowboys aren’t done window shopping for potential free agent signings, and today they brought in Byron Bell for a visit. Bell is a veteran offensive lineman who has plenty of NFL experience. He last played for the Tennessee Titans but missed last season with a dislocated ankle. He played with the Carolina Panthers before the Titans and has over 72 starts in his career, and has experience playing guard or tackle.
