Looney is under Contract for 2019

[Jkyle]

Given Looney's solid performance in the place to TF, I was afraid that we may need to pay him a good bit of money next year but he is in year 1 of a 2 year contract. (2 year, $2.1 Million for 2018 and 2019).
That looks to be a great break for us especially given the players that will be up for new contracts next year.
Now, he may have every right to have JJ renegotiate at season's end.

Looney has filled in very well. I hope they draft a versatile lineman as Looney's replacement as the backup.

He doesn’t really have the ability to ask for a new deal. It may be a smart move to extend him a couple years though
He’s signed pretty cheap even for a backup

Very good year for looney. Above average play from this. Like his attitude, funny guy too

I love "Fat Zeke", solid backup, and holding his own as a starter.

The guy reminds me of Sam Donaldson...

After this season we should extend and give him some more money. He will be a solid backup.

Add a year...

Agreed. He's 28 so he's got a lot more years left given the lack of wear and tear.

Thanks for the look up, I was wondering about that Loney's saved our bacon. I'm really pleasantly surprised.

I love this quote by Looney!! LMAO!!

Cowboys C Joe Looney on his down-field block near goal line on Ezekiel Elliott's 38-yard TD on screen: "Everybody was just so surprised about how fast I was running & I told them, there was a little @krispykreme box down there that I saw & I had to go down there and get me one."

Should Fredbeard one day come back, can Looney play any other O-Line positions, either as a starter or swing guy?

He’s the swing guard/center now. He played some guard last year. Very good swing guy but I don’t think he’s gonna take either guard spot as a starter and assuming Fred gets well he won’t be the center
But he’s a valuable player to have and I’d extend him a couple years or so
He’s also cheap

HAHA Looney is the man! Extend that dude and throw in a few boxes of Krispy Kreme donuts
