This week brought significant developments for the Dallas Cowboys, even with players on summer vacation. The recent record-breaking sale of the Los Angeles Lakers for $10 billion only solidifies the Cowboys' status as the most valuable sports franchise, now valued at $10.32 billion. This sale gives owner Jerry Jones leverage to significantly raise the asking price if he ever considers selling the team.

Additionally, the famed Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders are set to receive a 400% pay increase, marking a major turnaround from their previous compensation which sparked a lawsuit just a few years ago. Current members hailed the raise as "life-changing." Off the field, roster changes include the signing of defensive tackle Perrion Winfrey and cornerback Robert Rochell, along with two players being cut. Meanwhile, speculation continues regarding the future of star linebacker Micah Parsons and the Cowboys' potential moves regarding veteran players ahead of the training camp starting July 21.
