Cowboys News: Jones not worried about extending stars, McCarthy back at work

From @ToddBrock24f7: Stephen Jones says getting long-term deals done with 4 Cowboys stars is doable; the head coach has returned to work following back surgery.

The Cowboys are getting back into the swing of things at work, but locking in the star employees to long-term contracts is always on the to-do list, it seems. The front office spoke out today about a quartet of playmakers who could be in line for extensions very soon. The team’s head coach is back on the job after taking some time off for a recent back surgery, and a key piece of the offense’s passing attack says he’s finally over an injury of his own that led to a very down year.

In other news, we’re checking the fit of a few members of this year’s draft class, we’re wondering why the Cowboys haven’t called on an obvious choice at kicker, and we’re looking at several Dallas coaches who could be fielding phone calls from other clubs in the near future. That, and a surprising stat that puts Dak Prescott’s performance when blitzed into perspective, all ahead in News and Notes.
