The Cowboys are planning to use a second-round tender on Bass (knee), Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.
Per Fowler, the second-round tender for Bass would amount to $5.8 million. The pending restricted free agent guard -- who is bouncing back from a knee issue that landed him on IR on Jan. 3 -- has 10 career starts to his credit through 48 regular-season games with the Cowboys over the past three seasons.
