Cowboys nose tackle Jay Ratliff showed why he'll be sticking around for another five years, playing one of his best games Sunday, just two days after signing a five-year, $20.5 million contract. Ratliff had four tackles, a sack and a quarterback pressure in Sunday's loss to the Eagles. The Cowboys locked up Ratliff to avoid him becoming a restricted free agent at the end of the season. Ratliff, a seventh-round pick from Auburn in 2005, received an $8 million signing bonus.
