Dallas Cowboys pass-rushing linebacker Micah Parsons has personally told the football world he’ll be at mandatory mini-camp next week.
Micah Parsons being in and out of Dallas Cowboys OTAs wasn’t the biggest of deals, with the All-Pro making his way to The Star after the most recent practice.
But with his contract situation still not resolved, all eyes are on mandatory mini-camp next week and whether or not “The Lion” will be in attendance.
“I expect to see him,” head coach Brian Schottenheimer said.
And now Micah himself has confirmed his attendance via X regardless of whether a deal is done or not.
“I will be there! I haven’t missed a mini camp in 4 years! Even though the contract is not done, I have teammates and a playbook ! I’m preparing as if I will be on the field the first week of camp! But it’s in the owner’s hands. I’m ready to win a Super Bowl !”

Cue a collective sigh of relief with perhaps Dallas’ best player not letting his contract situation interfere with his football.
Of course, in an ideal world, Dallas and Micah would come to terms sooner rather than later, but with Parsons expected to fetch a contract around $40 million APY, Jerry Jones stated that No. 11 must be the player he wants to be paid like.
And that means showing up for work.
Which Parsons has done to a degree during OTAs, and now he’s confirmed he’ll be at The Star next week for the mandatory portion of this early offseason work.
Part of a new-look leadership group, Parsons knows the value of being there for his teammates and to learn a new playbook.
So with or without a contract, Micah will be present next week.
Just as a team leader should.
