Happy Wednesday, Dallas Cowboys Nation. It feels good to have meaningful football back with mandatory minicamp officially underway. And it was positive news only with Micah Parsons reporting to camp and a "perfect attendance," according to head coach Brian Schottenheimer.

Some players, like star cornerback Trevon Diggs, continue working with the rehab while they work back to full strength, but working out with the team is better received than doing it on your own away from the facility.

Parsons also shared positive notes about his plans leading up to the season, with another statement claiming he will be in attendance for training camp, whether or not he has a new deal -- although a new deal is preferred.

It will be interesting to see what comes out as the second day of minicamp continues on Wednesday afternoon, from new storylines to watch, potential position battles, and just fun, candid moments from the energetic sessions Schottenheimer has been provided.

While we wait to see what is the next news to come out of The Star, let's take a spin around the web and check out some of the headlines making waves online and on social media.

I’m not aware of any disrespect I’ve put on his name. Mukuamu took most of the first team reps on the outside during the 11 on 11 and 7 on 7 periods opposite Kaiir Elam with DaRon Bland in the slot. https://t.co/ket93iKcxP
