Cooper signed a five-year, $100 million deal with the Cowboys, one the team can opt-out of after the second season. Washington was reported to offer slightly more than that, but there's no income tax in Texas. By taking less money with Dallas, Cooper could still pocket more with his Cowboys deal than the one he would have signed with the Redskins.
