  "account": "The Dallas Cowboys reached a $18 million, three-year agreement with backup tight end Brevyn Spann-Ford, confirming his position behind Jake Ferguson. The contract's first annual payment is $205.00 plus GST, with subsequent renewals each year at $233.00 plus GST. Spann-Ford was originally an undrafted free agent in 2024 and has steadily climbed the roster, surpassing 2023 second-round pick Luke Schoonmaker. The 26-year-old, a former Minnesota player, scored a touchdown in his third season and contributed significantly on special teams. Despite Schoonmaker securing a spot on the 53-man roster, Spann-Ford's future remains secure through the 2029 season.",
