Micah Parsons Attends Cowboys Minicamp Despite Contract Standoff

Meeting owner Jerry Jones on the sidelines, Parsons warned he could skip practices if his contract remains unsigned.

Overview

  • Parsons attended the first day of mandatory minicamp in Frisco but sat out on-field drills as he awaits a new contract.
  • He held a 30-minute sideline conversation with owner Jerry Jones that focused on his offseason preparation and leadership growth rather than contract terms.
  • Parsons is poised to break the NFL pass-rusher pay scale, with projections tying him to a deal akin to Myles Garrett’s four-year, $160 million extension.
  • Head coach Brian Schottenheimer expressed confidence the negotiations will conclude before training camp in California and commended Parsons’ commitment to team development.
  • Meanwhile, second-round pick Donovan Ezeiruaku remains unsigned over guaranteed-money disputes, and quarterback Dak Prescott has returned from a hamstring injury under Schottenheimer’s “Wins” directive.
