Overview

• Negotiations have regressed so that the Cowboys and Parsons are now reportedly further apart than in late spring.
• ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports that the dialogue has become more personal and that discussions have nearly ceased.
• Dallas executives deny intentional delays, citing salary cap constraints and Parsons’ past injury history.
• Parsons remains at Oxnard training camp but is limiting himself to individual drills rather than participating in team sessions.
• Record-setting extensions for Myles Garrett and T.J. Watt have reset the pass-rusher market, driving Parsons to seek a top-tier defensive contract.
