Dashon Goldson remains a target for the Dallas Cowboys in NFL free agency.

According to Mike Garafolo of Fox Sports, the 'Boys are still interested in the free-agent safety. It was previously reported that Goldson was expected to visit Valley Ranch, but the defensive back never made it to town.

The Cowboys are still in the hunt for Goldson after missing out on several free-agent defensive backs. Cornerback Patrick Robinson signed with the Colts last week after visiting Dallas and the team recently swung and missed with Eagles cornerback Nolan Carroll. However, the club has yet to bring in Goldson for a visit as his price is reportedly been an issue. Goldson is coming off a five-year, $41.25 million contract after the Redskins released him this offseason.

Goldson is a 6-2, 200-pound safety who has played nine years in the NFL. Goldson was selected by the 49ers in the fourth round of the 2007 NFL Draft where he spent six seasons in San Francisco. There, Goldson was coached by current Cowboys defensive assistant Greg Jackson for two of the safety's best seasons in the league. Goldson then signed the aforementioned five-year contract with the Bucs in 2013 before getting traded to the Redskins in 2015.
