Deal Accepted! Amari Cooper Signs $136 Million 3-Year Contract with Dallas Cowboys Ahead of 2026 Season
In a massive and exciting turn of events for Cowboys Nation, wide receiver Amari Cooper has officially agreed to a stunning 3-year contract deal worth $136 million with the Dallas Cowboys. The announcement
, made just minutes ago, confirms Cooper’s return to AT&T Stadium, where he previously made a significant impact before being traded to the Cleveland Browns. This deal marks one of the biggest wide receiver contracts in NFL history and sets the tone for the Cowboys’ aggressive plans for the 2026 season.
The decision to bring Cooper back into the fold signals a strong commitment by Dallas to revamp and supercharge their offensive unit. Cooper, a four-time Pro Bowl receiver known for his elite route running, clutch performances, and consistent yardage gains, provides quarterback Dak Prescott — or potentially a new starting QB — with a reliable and explosive weapon downfield. In his previous stint with the Cowboys, Cooper recorded over 3,000 receiving yards and 21 touchdowns in just three seasons. His chemistry with the offense was undeniable, and his return is expected to immediately boost Dallas’ playoff hopes.
Sources close to the deal revealed that Cooper had multiple offers on the table, including interests from AFC powerhouses. However, the wide receiver ultimately chose familiarity, fan support, and the chance to win in Dallas once again. The $136 million deal reportedly includes $95 million guaranteed and several performance-based incentives tied to postseason success and Pro Bowl selections.
Fans in Dallas have erupted with excitement, taking to social media to celebrate the return of one of their most beloved offensive stars. Head Coach Mike McCarthy expressed his enthusiasm, calling Cooper “a leader on and off the field, and a dynamic player who fits our mission perfectly.”
With Cooper back in the blue and silver, the Cowboys are expected to restructure their offensive strategy heading into the 2026 season. His pairing with rising stars at the WR and TE positions could create one of the most dangerous offenses in the NFL.
This signing not only electrifies the Cowboys’ fan base but also sends a strong message to the league: Dallas is in win-now mode, and they’re not afraid to invest heavily in star power to bring another Lombardi Trophy to Arlington.
