There are some changes happening in the Dallas Cowboys locker room.
Literally, changes in the locker room.
Dak Prescott and Micah Parsons now have their lockers right next to each other.
That links the offensive and defensive leaders and tone-setters of the Cowboys.
It's a little thing, but it's an effort being made by first-year head coach Brian Schottenheimer to move his team in the right direction.
“We moved some guys around,” Schottenheimer said. “This year, I did, along with the help of the staff. They don’t really get a say in that, but there’s a method to the madness.
"I think when the guys went into the team room for the first time, I made them all stand up after they sat down, I let them sit down and I had them stand up and move seats. Why? It’s a new year. It’s 2025. We’ll do that in 2026, we’ll do that in 2027 and beyond.

"When you start a new year, do something different. Change something up. It’s something that’s talked about, thought about, but there’s a method to the madness at times.”
Schottenheimer isn't a totally new face.
He has been an assistant in Dallas for the past three years, so he's probably seen how things operate.
It likely can't hurt to try and have Prescott and Parsons growing in relationship with one another. And this will give them that chance.
