Cowboys News: Stephen Jones won’t commit to Cooper, Aikman sounds done with Fox

Stephen Jones had plenty to say in Indianapolis, including a guarantee that Ezekiel Elliott will remain with the Cowboys in ’22. | From @ToddBrock24f7

With the annual scouting combine usually comes a chance for the Dallas media to get some one-on-one time with a member of the Jones family. On Monday, it was Stephen holding court. He had plenty to say, including making a guarantee about one polarizing superstar’s future. He also hinted at the front office’s offseason spending strategy, but got noncommittal about one receiver widely thought to be on the proverbial bubble.

We’re taking a look at names and positions that the scouts should be scanning in Indianapolis, and also kicking the tires on a few free agents, too. Dallas has several players expected to draw heavy interest on the open market; we’re forecasting who’ll be the subject of a bidding war. Speaking of payday, a Cowboys icon is all but admitting he’s got a new job… and his salary stats put his playing days in a whole new perspective. All that, plus recalculating the odds that America’s Team will head overseas for a game in 2022 now that half of the participants for this year’s international games have been announced. That’s all up next in News and Notes.
