Overview

  • Micah Parsons formally requested a trade in an Aug. 1 post to Stephen Jones and has since limited his participation at camp.
  • He has not practiced or played in the Cowboys’ first two preseason games while remaining present with the team.
  • Jerry Jones says Dallas will not trade him now and urged fans not to worry, despite the escalating public rift.
  • The Cowboys hold his rights on a $24 million fifth-year option for 2025 and could apply a projected $26.5 million franchise tag next offseason.
  • The Packers are widely mentioned by NFL reporters as a likely suitor if a trade becomes possible, though one report says Dallas does not view a split as imminent.
