Once again, they&#8217;re getting it wrong.<\/p>\n<p>One day after a report suggests that the Dallas Cowboys and defensive star Micah Parsons are &#8220;making progress&#8221; &#8211; and CowboysCountry.com reporting that none of those involved can really confirm that there is much movement there &#8211; comes another report suggesting a major change in what Micah and owner Jerry Jones are planning on doing together.<\/p>\n<p>What we have been reporting for months: Parsons is interested in signing a lengthy five-year deal at around $40 million per season &#8230; with the $200 million total helping to make him the highest-paid non-QB ever.<\/p>\n<p>And Parsons has explained that to Jones.<\/p>\n<p>And Jones has acknowledged publicly that the two sides are on the same page in many ways.<\/p>\n<p>But all of that was two months ago. &#8230; and we do not sense that in any substantial way are coming any closer to terms a contract extension. Midway through June the two sides are at the same place they were months ago when the offseason was in its infancy stages.<\/p>\n<p>Having said that, we also view a deal as inevitable.<\/p>\n<p>So what has changed?<\/p>\n<p>According to NFL Network, Micah Parsons could seek a shorter extension than the Cowboys traditionally prefer so he can return to the market at age 29 or 30 &#8230; and that the Cowboys might need to &#8216;shave a year or even two off&#8217; of their offer to seal the deal.<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;re not sure why the Cowboys want to do that given that Micah wants to lock in long-term. And now we have a source explaining &#8230;<\/p>\n<p>The Cowboys do not particularly want to do that.<\/p>\n<p>Nor does Micah.<\/p>\n<p>The report, a source close to the negotiations tells CowboysCountry.com, is &#8220;simply not true.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>To Parsons&#8217; credit, he has not distanced himself from his team during this process, vowing to maintain a presence at training camp in Oxnard even if his deal isn&#8217;t done.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, Parsons has kept things extremely civil on his front despite the obvious frustrations of not having his deal done. &#8230; though he has noted that Dallas&#8217; habit of waiting does logically mean the Cowboys\u2019 price is just going to rise.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s going to cost them more,\u201d Parsons said.<\/p>\n<p>That is the spilling of a brutal truth.<\/p>\n<p>But a change in what Micah wants in terms of being a &#8220;Cowboy for Life&#8221; in terms of a lengthy deal? And in terms of the Cowboys wanting the same?<\/p>\n<p>That has not changed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>According to NFL Network, Micah Parsons could seek a shorter extension than the Cowboys traditionally prefer so he can return to the market at age 29 or&#8230; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":64661,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-64660","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-nfl"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Breaking!!
