SAN ANTONIO – Monday marks the beginning of a busy week for the Dallas Cowboys on the free agency front.
Citing a source, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported late Sunday night that free agent defensive end Jared Allen, 31, will tour Valley Ranch on Tuesday. On Monday, the Cowboys are set to host defensive tackle Henry Melton, 27, and quarterback Brandon Weeden, 30.
Allen, formerly of the Minnesota Vikings, and Melton, a Texas-ex and a former member of the Chicago Bears, visited the Seattle Seahawks last week. Melton has also visited the Vikings.
The Cowboys are in desperate need of top-flight defensive linemen after they cut end DeMarcus Ware, who signed last week with the Denver Broncos, and lost tackle and 2013 sacks leader Jason Hatcher to the Washington Commanders in free agency.

Allen led the Vikings last season with 11.5 sacks.
