Jerry Jones Stands By Micah Parsons Trade, Reveals He Queried Jets Before Packers Deal

He frames the move as roster allocation to secure interior strength plus draft capital instead of paying one elite defender.

Overview

  • The Cowboys sent Parsons to Green Bay for defensive tackle Kenny Clark and the Packers’ 2026 and 2027 first-round picks, per team disclosures.
  • Jones acknowledged the decision was risky yet said he has no regrets, characterizing it as a multi-player allocation to better support the roster.
  • The owner said he contacted the Jets about a Parsons swap that would have centered on Quinnen Williams and picks, but New York did not meet his price.
  • Packers fans chanted “Thank you, Jerry” after a 27-18 win, and Parsons praised Lambeau Field’s facilities as “top tier” in a postgame interview.
  • Parsons is off to a fast start in Green Bay under a reported four-year, $188 million contract, logging multiple pressures and 1.5 sacks through two games.
