Tucker, who joined the Cowboys last season after a year in NFL Europe, moved into the starting lineup when Michael Irvin went down with a career-threatening neck injury in Week 5.

Tucker led Dallas with a 19.1-yard average, finishing with 23 catches for 439 yards. He had two touchdowns, including a 90-yarder against the New York Giants in the final game of the season.

Tucker had two catches for 35 yards in the Cowboys' first-round playoff loss to Minnesota.

The Cowboys also signed free-agent kicker Jaret Greaser, a Texas Tech graduate.
