The long time contract dispute between the Dallas Cowboys and wide receiver Dez Bryant looks to be resolved soon as his agents met with the Cowboys in their first meeting with the team in four months.
ESPN first reported the meeting which happened at the Cowboys' team facility Friday.
The 26-year-old's agents Tom Condon and Kim Miale of Roc Nation met with the Cowboys according to ESPN's sources.
Cowboys executive vice president Stephen Jones said before that they are looking to sign Bryant to a long-term deal also stating that it is a priority but no deal has been reached so far.
The deadline for both sides to come up with the deal is until July 15 or else Bryant will be forced to sign the franchise tag the Cowboys gave him worth $12.823 million to play next season.
Until now, Bryant has refused to sign the tag and previously said that he is willing to miss their season opener or regular season action until the Cowboys give him his desired deal.
The two-time Pro Bowler has not attended the Cowboys' organized team activities although he was present in the final day of minicamp.
Bryant did not join his teammates during practice but watched from the sidelines, talked to quarterback Tony Romo and played catch with a team employee.
Cowboys owner Jerry Jones was not fazed by Bryant's threat of not playing for them in the regular season if no deal is reached.
In a report by ESPN, Jones said in during their minicamp "If we're still in a franchise situation with Dez, I have no doubt that he'll be leading the way against the New York Giants."
"We just know how competitive Dez is and how much he wants to beat the Giants and how much he wants to support his teammates," he added.
Missing their regular season game/s will not benefit Bryant since he is set to lose around $754,000 a week if he decides not to play.
