The Dallas Cowboys have reached an agreement with former Arizona Cardinals safety Jalen Thompson on a three-year contract, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network and Jane Slater.
The deal is worth a maximum of $36 million, per the reports. The agreement was finalized by Thompson's agents, Don Weatherell and Martin Fischman of Klutch Sports.
Thompson joins the Dallas secondary after a productive tenure in Arizona. The veteran safety has been a staple in the Cardinals' defensive backfield since being selected in the 2019 Supplemental Draft. His arrival in Dallas provides the Cowboys with a proven starter as they continue to refine their roster during the offseason period.
The move marks another significant addition for the Cowboys front office as they prioritize veteran experience in the deep secondary. Financial specifics, including the base salary and signing bonus, are expected to be released as the contract is officially signed.
