FRISCO, Texas -- This would be the perfect time for the Dallas Cowboys to get ahead of the game.
And it's not just an extension for All-Pro pass rusher Micah Parsons.
Three key members of the Cowboys' 2022 draft class are in position to sign extensions. First-rounder Tyler Smith, a Pro Bowl guard, has his fifth-year option for 2026 at a cost of $21.27 million. Tight end Jake Ferguson, their fourth-round pick, and cornerback DaRon Bland, their fifth-round pick, are about to enter the final year of their respective rookie contracts.
