Coming off a disappointing 8-8 record in 2019, the Dallas Cowboys hoped to recruit some top-tier free agents and put together a strong draft to compete in the 2020 season. However, the team suffered an unexpected blow when its star center, Travis Frederick, announced his surprise retirement at the end of March 2020.
Drafted by the Cowboys in the first round in 2013, Frederick became a mainstay on the team’s offensive line, anchoring a strong unit that included fellow All-Pro linemen Zack Martin and Tyron Smith. A five-time Pro Bowler himself, Frederick missed all of 2018 when he was diagnosed with the rare autoimmune disorder Guillain-Barre Syndrome. Though he returned for all 16 games of the 2019 campaign, it would be his last.
In his announcement, Frederick stated that he was retiring, in part because he could no longer play at the high level he and his teammates were accustomed to. The Cowboys have not announced who would replace Frederick in the starting lineup, but the team’s options include Joe Looney, who filled in for Frederick during the 2018 season.
