With training camp fast approaching the Dallas Cowboys are reportedly kicking the tires on a number of potential free agents this weekend.
As the team continues its negotiations with All-Pro linebacker Micah Parsons, Dallas is reportedly working out three different pass rushers according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler — including Jesse Luketa, Kameron Cline and James Houston.

All three potential signees are in their mid-to-late 20s and have seen their share of time on an NFL field. Houston came onto the scene pretty strong as a rookie in 2022 with eight sacks in seven games but has failed to match that production since.
Meanwhile, Luketa is coming off his best season as a pro with the Arizona Cardinals; while Cline has served as a valuable practice squad body for the Buffalo Bills in recent years.
The Cowboys are due to report to training camp on Monday and questions still linger about whether or not Parsons will be there. Jerry Jones and Co. have consistently dragged their feet on contracts for key players of late and its only resulted in the price going up to retain their stars.
Parsons could holdout or "hold-in" as he seeks the big money contract extension that his performance has earned. But at the same time, signing Dak Prescott and CeeDee Lamb to top of the market deals has really hamstrung the team and flexibility against the cap.
If Parsons does withhold his services its hard to imagine the Cowboys won't eventually give in to his demands. However, its still very much on the table that they kick the can down the road into 2026.
