Micah Parsons shakes up Cowboys training camp after requesting trade

Article arrow_drop_down

Micah Parsons, one of the top defensive players in the entire NFL, shocked everyone by showing up to the Dallas Cowboys’ training camp on Saturday-just days after officially requesting a trade. Although the star linebacker didn’t actively participate in practice, his presence only intensified the ongoing controversy surrounding his contract situation.

The cornerstone of the Cowboys’ defense is clearly experiencing a rift with the front office led by Jerry Jones. Parsons is heading into the final season of his rookie contract without a new deal in sight, and the tension between him and team executives has become increasingly evident.

Parsons’ relationship with Dallas in jeopardy

Parsons’ appearance was reported on social media by journalists Jon Machota and Dianna Russini, confirming that the defensive star still maintains some formal ties with the team. However, his absence from on-field drills underscores that the conflict remains unresolved.

The Cowboys’ front office has already struggled to finalize key extensions in recent years, such as those involving Dak Prescott and CeeDee Lamb. In both cases, negotiations stalled for months before finally reaching a resolution. Now, the drama is repeating itself with Parsons, who may follow the same path-or leave Dallas altogether in 2025.

Could it be the biggest contract for a defensive player in NFL history?

Parsons isn’t just a star player-he’s a weekly nightmare for opposing quarterbacks. His impact on the field makes him an invaluable asset, and all signs point to his next deal setting a new record.

Currently, the NFL’s highest-paid defensive player is T.J. Watt, who earns an average of $41 million per year. Parsons is widely expected to surpass that figure, whether it’s with the Cowboys or with another team willing to pay him what he’s worth.

Will the Cowboys get the deal done?

As the clock ticks down, the big question is whether Dallas can lock in a new contract for Micah Parsons before the regular season begins. If they can’t, his departure in 2025 becomes increasingly likely.

The Cowboys are holding on to a superstar-but also sitting on a contract time bomb. And the countdown has already begun.

Edwards: England’s best cricket ahead of them at World Cup

Charlotte Edwards has vowed England's "best cricket" is yet to come ahead of their World Cup showdown with co-hosts India on Sunday.England were indebted to the Colombo rain on Wednesday after Pakistan ripped through their top order to reduce them to 79-7. Wet weather in the Sri Lankan capital halted Pakistan's pursuit of 113 for victory after just 6.1 overs as England stretched their unbeaten start to the tournament to five games.After four wins and a no result, just two more points are required for England to book their ticket to the semi-finals - and Edwards has her sights set on securing them against India in Indore."We've spoken about it, it would be silly not to," said the England head coach.

The two incredible offers the Patriots turned down for Drake Maye

The New England Patriots' decision to stay at No. 3 to draft Drake Maye raised eyebrows at the time, but recent reports reveal just how much they turned away. According to renowned journalist Albert Breer of Sports Illustrated, several teams plied New England with major packages in an attempt to move up and grab the North Carolina product. "So the Vikings offered them the 11th pick, the 23rd pick, a 2025 firstround pick," Breer said during an appearance on 98.5 The Sports Hub. "So they were offered three firstround picks and then pick swaps later on. And then the Giants offered their firstround pick, which was sixth. So they would only have to move down three spots. Then their 2025 firstround pick. Then, I believe, a thirdround pick." Ultimately, the Patriots stood firm. Even though the franchise still had significant holes to fill, they believed Maye was worth more […]
