The Dallas Cowboys have contacted the agent for defensive linemen Jason Hatcher and Anthony Spencer about retaining their services for the 2014 season.
Hatcher had a cap hit of $2.6 million in 2013 while Spencer came in much higher at $10.6 million. Hatcher should be in for a big pay raise after amassing a career-high 11 sacks and 48 tackles last season. Spencer is rehabbing from a major knee surgery and won't be back to full speed until training camp.
The Cowboys roughly have $20 million in cap space this season, making it highly unlikely they'll be able to re-sign both players on top of other needs and the signing of potential draft picks.
