The Cowboys are no strangers to lengthy negotiating periods with high-profile players, and this offseason has proven to be no exception. Micah Parsons is still a pending 2026 free agent with this year’s offseason program in the books.

Retirement questions surrounded Travis Kelce leading up to the Chiefs’ Super Bowl loss. In short order, though, the future Hall of Famer made it clear he will suit up for 2025. Kelce was away from the Chiefs during voluntary work this spring, but he is in attendance for this week’s mandatory minicamp.

Multiple stories that emerged this past winter revealed that Pittsburgh Steelers offensive coordinator Arthur Smith and quarterback Russell Wilson “did not have a very good working relationship” last season. This is in part because “Smith did not want Wilson changing plays at the line of scrimmage…and deviating from the game plan.”  Thus, some understandably have wondered

Quarterback Tommy DeVito is neither the New York Giants’ present nor their future.  Veteran Russell Wilson will enter training camp as the Giants’ undisputed starter, and 2025 first-round draft pick Jaxson Dart is the franchise’s long-term project regarding the position.
