Micah Parsons' Future with Cowboys Uncertain Amid Contract Speculation
Dallas Cowboys leadership and star linebacker Micah Parsons address trade rumors as financial challenges loom over a potential contract extension.
- Dallas Cowboys COO Stephen Jones stated he 'can't imagine' trading Micah Parsons but acknowledged the team's financial constraints after extending Dak Prescott and CeeDee Lamb.
- Parsons expressed his desire to remain with the Cowboys long-term but acknowledged the business realities of the NFL and the uncertainty surrounding his future.
- The Cowboys activated Parsons' fifth-year option for 2025, but his market value is projected at $29 million annually, potentially making him the NFL's highest-paid defensive player.
- Parsons delivered a standout performance in the Cowboys' 30-14 win over the Panthers, recording two sacks and leading a dominant defensive effort despite the team's slim playoff hopes.
- Contract restructures for Prescott and Lamb could free up significant cap space, but the Cowboys face tough decisions on balancing their roster's financial structure.
