The Dallas Cowboys are making headlines off the field when all the attention should be focused on another season trying to win the Super Bowl. It’s been chaotic months for Jerry Jones.

First, the owner stopped all efforts to give Dak Prescott a contract extension. Even with MVP numbers in 2023, the money didn’t appear. As a consequence, the star quarterback is leaning toward becoming an unrestricted free agent in 2025.

Then, two big names in the NFL seem to be following that path. CeeDee Lamb and Micah Parsons. Instead of locking their core group of stars, Jones has chosen to let things flow.

Why is Troy Aikman in a legal battle with Lamar Jackson?

The information points out that the key factor in this legal fight is the use of ‘Eight’ as a trademark. It’s important to remember that both quarterbacks became NFL stars using that jersey number.

“Lamar Jackson, who owns or has applied for several trademarks using the number in various phrases, says Aikman’s attempt to use ‘EIGHT’ on apparel and bags would be ‘likely to cause confusion, or cause mistake, or to deceive’ the purchasing public as to whether they’re buying products from Jackson or Aikman’s company, Jackson’s attorney said in July 9 filings.”
