Weekend News: Schultz extremely happy for other’s fortune, Kearse leading by example

Key pieces of the Cowboys spoke to the media after OTAs this week about the year so far, like Dalton Schultz, Jayron Kearse and Tyler Smith. | From @AsaHenry_55

Did the Cowboys miss the boat on reaching a long-term agreement with Dalton Schultz for less than $14 million a year? David Njoku’s new salary with the Cleveland Browns says they may have.

Schultz has steadily worked his way into one of Dak Prescott’s favorite targets by far outperforming Njoku, and is one of the top tight ends in the NFL over the last two years. He also has already began mentoring rookie and fellow fourth-round tight end Jake Ferguson.

Speaking of Cowboys rookies, none have more of an opportunity than offensive lineman Tyler Smith. Smith is now a couple weeks into his professional career, and he spoke to the media about the surreal reality where he is working with All-Pros but still doing laundry at his moms house, and his overall experience so far at the next level.

Plus, thoughts on the swing tackle spot, Noah Brown’s head start on the ongoing position battle at wide receiver, and whether the NFC East is the worst division in the NFL?
