The Dallas Morning News reports the Cowboys have declined to pick up DT Henry Melton's three-year, $24 million option.
Dallas had until Sunday to make a decision, but they were never expected to pick up the option. Although he can rush the passer, Melton reportedly rubbed the coaching staff the wrong way and was almost deactivated two separate times. Melton will be an unrestricted free agent for the second straight offseason. He is Rotoworld's No. 8 available interior defensive lineman.
