Micah Parsons contract dispute: Dallas Cowboys star makes first public comment since trade request

Dallas Cowboys pass rusher Micah Parsons had very little to say about his contract situation and trade request. On Wednesday after practice, reporters tried to get more information from Parsons, who requested a trade from the team earlier this month.

“My mouth is closed,” Micah Parsons said, per Jon Machota of The Athletic. Parsons is entering the final year of his rookie contract with Dallas.

Wednesday was the Cowboys’ final training camp practice in Oxnard, California. They will complete camp at home in Frisco, Texas, and fans are hoping the Cowboys and Parsons can get a deal done before the preseason ends.

Cowboys owner Jerry Jones spoke to reporters on Wednesday and was asked if contract talks would pick up with Micah Parsons when the team gets back to Texas. He said, “I don’t know that necessarily talks will, but we got a game coming and he’s under contract.”

What’s next for the Cowboys and Micah Parsons?

It doesn’t seem like the Cowboys are in a rush to sign Parsons to a contract extension. Earlier this week, Adam Schefter of ESPN shared his thoughts on the Cowboys and Parsons.

“If there’s no deal in sight, what’s going to happen? is Micah going to play in the opener?” Schefter said on Get Up. “Already heard Jerry Jones wonder about whether Micah would be out there on opening day. What would be the Cowboys’ plan here? Well, if, obviously they can’t get a long term deal done and the two sides are not even talking about right now, then they can always have Micah this year, if he plays. And they have the franchise tag after this year, they’d have franchise tag the next year. They have his rights, essentially, for three years.

“At some point in time, you have to wonder if they would look to trade him. Now they’ve been very opposed to that idea, publicly saying we’re not interested in trading him, he’s not going to be dealt, but you can’t not sign the guy, and then you can’t not trade him. It’s one or the other.”
