The two sides do not appear close as Ian Rapoport explains that the initial offer by the Cowboys wasn’t considered serious.
Rapoport said Dallas made an offer to the pass rusher’s agent, David Canter, in Indianapolis (during the NFL Scouting Combine), that was not considered serious by Lawrence and his camp. If the sides aren’t even close enough for the player to consider it serious right before free agency opens, it likely signifies we’re months away from any resolution.
Prepare the siege provisions.
If the Cowboys can’t get a deal done by mid-July, those questions would ramp up heading into training camp.
