Micah Parsons Seeks Record $200M Extension as Cowboys Face Contract Challenges

The Dallas Cowboys have yet to make progress in negotiations with their star defender, with market pressures and financial constraints complicating talks.

  • Micah Parsons is reportedly seeking a $200 million contract extension, which would make him the highest-paid non-quarterback in NFL history.
  • The Cowboys have had preliminary discussions with Parsons' agent, David Mulugheta, and team owner Jerry Jones has spoken to Parsons directly, but no significant progress has been made since the NFL Combine.
  • Recent record-breaking contracts for defensive players, including Myles Garrett's $160 million deal, are increasing pressure on Dallas to act quickly.
  • Parsons, 25, has been a dominant force on defense, recording 52.5 sacks over four seasons and solidifying his value as one of the NFL's top defenders.
  • The Cowboys risk losing leverage in negotiations as other players continue to reset the market, with uncertainty surrounding whether Parsons might hold out if no deal is reached.
