As practice commences, the story in Cowboys camp is they have two players who want to be the highest-paid non-QB in the league. They also still need to pay their own QB.
The first day of football practice taking a back seat to contract speculation? Must be training camp with the Dallas Cowboys. It's a common occurrence at camps all over the NFL, as players use their leverage to secure compensation before the start of a grueling season. It's particularly pressing in Oxnard, Calif., however, as the Cowboys are faced with financial circumstances that'd make even the most seasoned league executive sweat.
Urgent as it might feel to get Lamb under contract and into camp, it comes against the backdrop of the biggest negotiation of all: Dak Prescott's. Like Parsons, Prescott is also at camp, but the rapidly approaching 2024 season is the last of his current contract. And unlike Parsons or even Lamb, the Cowboys don't have the safeguard of franchise tagging their starting quarterback if they can't reach a new deal.
