Linebacker Micah Parsons has requested a trade from the Cowboys. They’ll likely say no. But what if they say yes? More accurately, what if another team makes them an offer they won’t refuse? They’ll get calls. And the overriding question is whether a new team would give up a pair of first-round picks and pay Parsons the $45 million per …

At a time when they should be making progress, the Cowboys and linebacker Micah Parsons are not. Adam Schefter of ESPN.com said Tuesday that the two sides are moving in the wrong direction. Via Leocciano Callao of Yahoo Sports, Schefter said the player and team are “further away from a deal in late July, early August than [they] were in …

Another day, another barb thrown Micah Parsons’ way by a member of the Cowboys brass. The team and the star edge rusher are at a contract-extension standoff with training camp already open, and with few signs of any significant movement toward resolving the situation.  Parsons is in the final year of his rookie deal, making $24 million, and would hit …

The Cowboys are way better at coming up with reasons for not timely and properly paying their key players than they are at timely and properly paying their key players. Amid training-camp chants from fans to pay linebacker Micah Parsons, Cowboys executive Stephen Jones said this, via Clarence E. Hill, Jr. of All City DLLS, “We want to pay Micah …

Well, now we know why the Dallas Cowboys haven’t signed Micah Parsons to an extension. Jerry Jones has been negotiating with the wrong guy. NFL training camps are officially open, which means the 82-year-old Dallas Cowboys owner is in search of a microphone to speak in front of.

Cowboys edge rusher Micah Parsons is at training camp in Oxnard, California, but he is not practicing as he waits for a contract extension. Last year, quarterback Dak Prescott was where Parsons is. Prescott, though, practiced with the team before finally agreeing to a four-year, $240 million deal on the day of the season opener. As Parsons pointed out earlier …

Micah Parsons still is not practicing Wednesday, the second consecutive day he is not participating with the Cowboys in Oxnard, California. The star edge rusher said Tuesday he would not characterize it as a “hold-in,” citing back tightness. But he and Trevon Diggs, who was standing next to Parsons, joked about “heavy squats” being the cause. Parsons also is not …

A player has much more leverage if he doesn’t show up for training camp than if he shows up and leaves. With Cowboys linebacker Micah Parsons being asked specifically about the possibility of leaving the team on Tuesday — and with Parsons not flatly ruling it out — it makes sense to explain what would happen. The rule appears in …

Micah Parsons had a pretty pointed statement for Jerry Jones after the Cowboys owner took shots at him during a press conference a day earlier.  Jones indicated to reporters that injuries were playing a part in why the Cowboys and Parsons hadn’t come to terms on a contract extension, and the defensive end said on Tuesday that there hadn’t been …

Cowboys defensive end Micah Parsons showed up to training camp and was on the practice field with a helmet Tuesday. He did not do much. Parsons said he isn’t holding in but instead cited back tightness. “It’s something that I feel is going to hold me back, so I just need to rehab,” Parsons said, via video from Clarence Hill …
