Tyrone Crawford Fantasy Stats

Dallas Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy told reporters on Thursday that defensive lineman Tyrone Crawford is retiring after eight years in the NFL. The 31-year-old has served as a versatile leader for Dallas' defensive line in his time with the team. Crawford had surgery on both of his hips in 2019 and recorded only 14 tackles and two sacks in 15 games (no starts) last year. He played on less than 20 percent of the defensive snaps and clearly was not his normal self. Crawford was a third-round pick out of Boise State in 2012 . Linebacker Sean Lee is also on record as considered retirement this offseason, and the team is in discussions about his future. Crawford was signed to a five-year, $45 million deal in 2015, which included $8 million in the final year of his deal.

Dallas Cowboys defensive lineman Tyrone Crawford said that he is "feeling great" as he recovers from surgeries to both of his hips. He said he is, "feeling awesome, ready to go" for the 2020 season. Hip issues kept Crawford from playing much in 2019, as he appeared in just four games. As long as he remains healthy, he's expected to compete for a starting job, but the Cowboys may opt to have him at least rotate with someone to keep the potential for injury somewhat lower.
