Drafted No. 116 in 2018 by the Dallas Cowboys, Dorance Armstrong is coming off the most productive season of his young career.

Dorance Armstrong Salary

Armstrong signed a two-year, $12,000,000 contract with the Cowboys in 2022. It included a $4,500,000 signing bonus, $6,000,000 guaranteed, and an average annual salary of $6,000,000.

Dorance Armstrong Cap Hit

The 25-year-old carries a $7,250,000 cap hit in 2023.

Dorance Armstrong Potential Extension

Armstrong had career-high 8.5 sacks in 2022 and will be looking to build off that in 2023, a contract year. Armstrong is a free agent in 2024 and played 47.9% of snaps in 2022, the most of his career.

If Armstrong can continue getting to the quarterback in a part-time role, teams will be able to see his value, and he should be paid accordingly. He’ll likely be due for a two or three-year deal on his next contract. Two years makes the most sense at around $7.5 million annually.
