DE Sam Williams isn’t Superman, but he’s impressing Cowboys in new way after ACL tear Returning from a season-ending ACL injury, the Cowboys DE is on a mission to go beyond where he once was.

Feature | Sam Williams was called Superman so much that he had the logo tattooed on his arm.

“I thought I was invincible.”

Until his ACL tear a year ago. Now, motivated by his two sons, he’s “coming” for everything he lost last season and more. www.dallasnews.com/sports/cowbo...

Micah Parsons discouraged by talks with Cowboys: ‘If this is the end, this is the end’ Contentiousness ramps up between Parsons and the Cowboys as contract talks with the star defender hit a standstill.

Micah Parsons said he knows the script the Cowboys use when it comes to paying stars.

“I don’t take it personally. I just don’t understand.”

Now, his discouragement is evident.

Jerry Jones sends clear message to Trevon Diggs as Cowboys report for training camp The Cowboys reduced cornerback Trevon Diggs’ contract by $500,000 last week because Diggs did not complete in at least 84% of his workouts. Jerry Jones said...

OXNARD -- The Joneses made it clear on Monday that big extensions come with big expectations. That there's a cost to being one of their highest-paid players.

For Trevon Diggs, that cost is figurative and literal.

And now they want more from him.

How would missing Cowboys training camp affect Micah Parsons? Elite players offer insight With a potential training camp holdout or hold in on the horizon, where will Dallas Cowboys pass rusher Micah Parsons fall? Will a lack of practice cost him,...

New feature | Aaron Donald didn’t need training camp to win two DPOY Awards. T.J. Watt didn’t need it either.

Does Micah Parsons?

“It’s really about the guy.”

Feature | The #Cowboys have had a lot of success with UDFAs. This year they prioritized two: Syracuse's Alijah "Cinco" Clark and Justin Barron.

There's a reason for it.

Why 2 is better than 1 when it comes to these best friends.

I had to ask #Cowboys rookie OL Tyler Booker about the viral video of him pushing a kid at his camp in a race.

“No one was beating Tyler Booker at The Tyler Booker Football Camp,” he said with a smile.

It’s another example of his competitive fire.

Cowboys QB Dak Prescott excited to see CeeDee Lamb, George Pickens relationship grow So far, Prescott has seen plenty of reasons to be optimistic about the WR duo.

Are you curious about how CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens will work together? Dak Prescott was, too — until he saw firsthand how they interacted at his annual getaway in GA.

“To be the guy that gets them the ball, it’s exciting as hell.”

We talked with Dak Prescott today at his annual camp. Story to come soon, but one update: Dak says he’s ready for camp physically.

“I’m as healthy as can be.”

New | Tyron Smith’s punch could stop hearts. It’s also a natural talent that’s hard to replicate.

Can he teach it to #Cowboys LT Tyler Guyton?

“You need to know that you can punch through anybody.”

George Pickens should plug a hole in the Cowboys’ offense, but will he be a temporary fix? The Cowboys were able to buy low on the ultra-talented George Pickens this offseason. Could the WR line himself up for a big payday?

Did the Dallas Cowboys fix their WR2 problem with George Pickens, or just delay it?

Why it could be a lot more difficult — and more expensive — to find a running mate for CeeDee Lamb. www.dallasnews.com/sports/cowbo...

The Dallas Cowboys lose more than just a starting CB in Jourdan Lewis - DLLS Sports There were points in their battle where Dallas Cowboys corner Jourdan Lewis could've let it go. He could've shrugged off a football thrown his way after the

Column | One of Dak Prescott's first impressions of Jourdan Lewis came when Lewis didn't back down from Dez Bryant in 2017.

That impression didn't change for the next seven years.

The Cowboys not only lost their starting NCB; they lost a fighter.

This OT market is a good example of why drafting a LT makes so much sense. One position you don’t want to *need*. Otherwise, it will cost you.
