Cowboys Sign First Round Pick Claiborne

Al Bello/Getty Images(IRVING, Texas) -- Cornerback Morris Claiborne signed a four-year, $16.4 million contract with the Dallas Cowboys Monday.

The contract includes a $10.3 million signing bonus and is fully guaranteed. The Cowboys have a club option for a fifth season.

Claiborne was Dallas' first-round pick in the 2012 NFL Draft. He has been unable to participate in practice all offseason because he has been recovering from wrist surgery.

The former LSU star has now been cleared medically and will begin practice Wednesday when rookies, quarterbacks, first-year players and selective veterans report to camp.

By signing Claiborne, the Cowboys have officially signed their entire 2012 draft class.
