Exclusive rights free agent Brock Hoffman has his option picked up to stay with Cowboys
The Dallas Cowboys have been busy today. Earlier, they announced many transactions, including agreeing with Osa Odighizuwa to a four-year contract ahead of unrestricted free agency. Focusing on the trenches, Dallas keeps another one of their interior players in the fold. Interior offensive lineman Brock Hoffman signed his exclusive rights tender to stay with the Cowboys. Hoffman joined the Cowboys in 2022 after being released from the Cleveland Brownsâ practice squad.
Hoffman made his first start for the Cowboys in 2023, starting in place of Tyler Biadasz and also in the 2023 season finale at Washington. In his brief time as a starter, Hoffman has exhibited a mean streak on the field to finish plays as a run blocker and has proven to be effective. Entering 2024, it was believed that Hoffman could have competed for the starting job at center, but ultimately yielded the position to rookie Cooper Beebe.
However, Hoffman started seven games at right guard last year, replacing Zack Martin and played well in Martinâs absence. With Martin set to retire, Hoffman looks primed to be the teamâs starting right guard next season, and the teamâs renewed commitment to running the football suits Hoffman just fine.
