If you even for a second forgot that the Dallas Cowboys are the center of the sports universe, Tuesday was yet another reminder. While many clubs opened their training camps over the last few days with a few more on the way, nobody knows how to grab headlines like Jerry Jones and company. On Tuesday, the team hosted their initial press conference of the 2023 season, which is always a great time.

All anyone could talk about, though, was the person not in attendance, as the holdout of future Hall of Fame guard Zack Martin began. As usual, with a keen sense for timing, the team added a big announcement to the tail end of the day to move the conversation. Star corner Trevon Diggs is no longer the most at-risk young veteran, earning a huge five-year contract extension after a stellar start to his career. Here’s everything you may have missed from Tuesday in the latest News and Notes.
