Commanders
Per Ben Standig of The Athletic, Commanders WR Terry McLaurin continues to miss Phase three offseason work as he seeks a new contract extension. However, QB Jayden Daniels said that’s not going to hold them back once the season starts.
“Me and Terry have a good relationship outside of football. He has to handle what he has to handle, but that doesn’t change anything, the fact that he is part of our brotherhood,” Daniels said. “We know Terry is working and everything. We have to get better, and he knows he has to get better each and every day.”
Cowboys
- Cowboys HC Brian Schottenheimer had good things to say about OT Tyler Guyton: “He’s having a great offseason. I think some of the new things that Klayton Adams and Conor Riley have brought really fits him…He has not missed a day, he was one of the first guys back in the building.” (Ed Werder)
- Schottenheimer also talked about new WR George Pickens: “No. 1, he’s doing an incredible job of picking up the system. But there was a play and it really wasn’t anything that George did, but we were in the red zone and we were in kind of a spread formation and we hit him for a touchdown. Joe (Milton) did on a little bender, a little skinny post, down in the low red zone.” (Jon Machota)
- He has no worry that Pickens and WR CeeDee Lamb will have a strong bond and thrive together: “Those two guys’ relationship is awesome. They’re spending a lot of time together. I think it’s great for CeeDee to have someone like George. Not that George is a young player, but someone that GP really looks up to in CeeDee. They obviously have trained some together. That relationship is really cool. I’m enjoying just kind of sitting back and watching it develop.” (Machota)
- Schottenheimer wishes his father Marty was still alive to give him advice heading into his first season at the helm in Dallas: “I’ve been thinking about this, really, my whole life as a professional, what I wanted to do. But there are things that come up every day, and kind of like, I wish my dad were still here. I’d reach out to him.” (Ed Werder)
- Schottenheimer expects DE Micah Parsons to be in attendance during mandatory veteran minicamp next week. (Calvin Watkins)

“I’ve been very blessed to sign a good contract here,” Goedert said, via Brooks Kubena of The Athletic. *“I feel like at some point I wouldn’t wanna play for less. You know what I mean? I feel like I know my value. I feel like the Eagles know my value. And just finding something that I was OK with, a number that I...
