Tyron Smith is set to retire with the Dallas Cowboys after the perennial Pro Bowl left tackle spent his final season with the New York Jets, multiple sources reported Tuesday.

The Cowboys scheduled an announcement today from Smith without providing any details. Reports said the 34-year-old intended to sign a ceremonial one-day contract in order to retire with the franchise that drafted him in the first round 14 years ago.

The selection of Smith at No. 9 overall triggered a rebuilding of the Dallas offensive line, which was among the best in the NFL within a few years of that move.

Smith’s retirement comes a little more than a month after right guard Zack Martin made the same announcement following an 11-season career spent entirely with the Cowboys. Martin and Smith were teammates for 10 years.

Smith was the first of three offensive linemen drafted in the first round by Dallas in a four-year span. Center Travis Frederick was a late first-round pick in 2013, followed by Martin a year later. Frederick retired after the ’19 season.

Smith played right tackle when he debuted as a 20-year-old rookie out of USC. He switched to quarterback Tony Romo’s blind side in 2012 and ended up as an eight-time Pro Bowler at left tackle. Smith was a two-time All-Pro.

After missing just one game in his first five seasons, Smith began to have issues with injuries and missed at least three games in each of his final nine years.

Smith made 161 starts over 13 seasons with the Cowboys before making 10 starts for the Jets last season.

The Miami Dolphins are pursuing trade options for All-Pro cornerback Jalen Ramsey, general manager Chris Grier confirmed.

Ramsey did not ask for a trade, and he didn’t ask for more money, Grier clarified, but after weeks of conversations with Ramsey’s representation, both sides agreed it would be best to move on.

Grier declined to go into detail about the contents of discussions he’s had with Ramsey, and did not give a clear reason for potentially parting ways with the cornerback, who was acquired from the Rams in 2023 and given a three-year, $72.3 million contract extension ahead of the 2024 season. That deal made Ramsey the highest-paid cornerback in the league at the time.

HOCKEY

Hilary Knight set an assist record as the United States wrapped up the group stage at the women’s ice hockey world championship by beating Switzerland 5-0 in Ceske Budejovice, Czech Republic.

The U.S. topped Group A with a perfect record of four wins in as many games and will face Germany, the third-place team in Group B, in the quarterfinals on Thursday.

Knight, 35, making her 15th world championship appearance, recorded three assists for a total of 50 to break Hayley Wickenheiser’s record of 49 assists at the tournament.

Knight is also the all-time leader for goals (67) and points (117).

Tessa Janecke and Kendall Coyne scored two goals each, Caroline Harvey also had a goal and Alex Carpenter added three assists. Goalie Gwyneth Philips had to make only three saves before she was replaced 11:04 into the middle period by Ava McNaughton, who also stopped three shots as the U.S. outshot the Swiss 53-6.

Earlier, Japan edged past Germany 1-0 to set up a quarterfinal against defending champion Canada. Japan finished second in Group B while Canada was placed second in Group A.

COLLEGE FOOTBALL

Former Cal running back Jaydn Ott is transferring to Oklahoma, providing a big boost to the Sooners offense.

The Sooners announced Ott has signed with the program. The spring transfer window opens today but Ott was able to commit earlier because he is a graduate transfer.

Ott was severely limited last season after injuring his ankle in the season opener and was held to 385 yards on 116 carries with four TDs and an average of only 3.3 yards per carry.

TENNIS

Diego Dedura-Palomero made his mark on tennis in more than one way Tuesday.

The 17-year-old German became the first player born in 2008 to win a match on the ATP Tour and celebrated the feat with a unique celebration.

After his opponent, Denis Shapovalov, retired when trailing 7-6 (2), 3-0 in their first-round match at the BMW Open in Munich, Dedura-Palomero used his feet to scrape out a cross on the Munich clay before lying down on top of it.

Dedura-Palomero said he was “quite religious” and the celebration was “a gesture of gratitude.”
