The Cowboys are bringing in a veteran linebacker to shore up their defense. Dallas announced it agreed to a one-year deal with four-time Pro Bowler Anthony Barr. The Cowboys reportedly beat out the Denver Broncos to sign the 30-year-old and waived rookie linebacker Aaron Hansford in a corresponding move. Barr comes off a season where he totaled 72 tackles, two-and-a-half sacks and three interceptions. He had spent his whole career with the Vikings after being drafted by Minnesota in the first round of the 2014 NFL Draft.
