It would be wise for the Cowboys to get a Micah Parsons deal done before T.J. Watt gets a new one himself.
As we approach training camp, the one major question surrounding the Dallas Cowboys is Micah Parsons getting a new deal before the start of the season. This offseason has been filled with back-and-forth from Micah Parsons and the Jones’ in terms of negotiation through the media. Parsons has been on record multiple times asking Jerry and Stephen to “call his agent”, while the Jones’ joked they would deal with Parsons himself instead of his agent, who Jerry claimed not to know.
The negotiations feel like they are at a standstill with both parties seeming comfortable waiting until sometime during training camp. It sure sounds like Parsons is looking to be the highest paid non-quarterback in the NFL, which would put his average annual value at or around $40 million per year, eclipsing Myles Garrett’s four year, $160 million contract extension with the Browns signed earlier this year.
One holdup here now is Pittsburgh Steeler’s edge rusher T.J. Watt.
