The NFL's compensation committee has denied a request from Jerry Jones to allow a final vote of approval on the contract extension of Roger Goodell.

The committee also reiterated Monday that Jones should drop his threat to sue the league over Goodell's deal.

Goodell is on track to sign his extension at or before the owners' meetings in Dallas on Dec. 13th.

Jones threatened to sue the league if the committee approves an extension, saying it should be reviewed and approved by all owners. Goodell's current deal as commissioner is set to expire after the 2018 season.
