    Smith has agreed to a one-year, $4 million deal with the Cowboys, NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reported.

    FOX's Jay Glazer first reported the signing.

    Rapoport added that Smith's contract begins when he's officially reinstated, which "Dallas is confident it will happen." NFL Network's Mike Garafolo said the reinstatement process is underway and added that the contract is for $2 million in base salary and $2 million in sack incentives.

    Smith last played for the Raiders in 2015 when he was issued an indefinite suspension for violation of the league's substance-abuse and personal-conduct policies. Smith was then released by the Raiders in 2018 after he was named as a suspect in a domestic violence incident.

    The No. 7 pick in the 2011 NFL Draft by the 49ers, Smith was an All-Pro in 2012 and tallied 47.5 sacks in 59 games.
    We're looking for people that are fundamentally different,” vice president of player personnel Andy Weidl said Saturday night. “The love and passion for football, it's non-negotiable. They're caring, their character, they do the right thing persistently, and they have a relentless playing style that you can see on tape. The motor, it burns hot. You see them finishing plays. They have a team-first mentality. They're selfless individuals.

        You can feel comforted knowing all those people who bought cowgirl jerseys will have something to use if they run out of toilet paper.
        Wait until next year is a terrible philosophy

            If I were a FA and was negotiating I'd want a truckload of toilet paper for a bonus.
