Overview

  • Coach Brian Schottenheimer said he will meet Parsons on Sunday to discuss his behavior during the preseason finale and any decisions will be handled internally.
  • Parsons has not practiced all camp during a hold-in after requesting a trade, and reporting indicates Dallas is prepared for him to play on the fifth-year option at about $21.324 million.
  • The All-Pro underwent a back MRI that Schottenheimer said was "pretty clean"; Parsons addressed viral photos by saying he would never disrespect teammates and that the images lacked context.
  • Jerry Jones publicly claimed he offered near-record guaranteed money and criticized agent David Mulugheta’s role, a characterization the agent has disputed.
  • Cornerback Trevon Diggs said he is unsure about Week 1 as he ramps up from knee surgery, though Schottenheimer expects him to be activated to the 53-man roster as Dallas sets final cuts before the opener.
