However, as the team ramps up its preparations for the 2025 NFL season, one big question remains.<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_8xpbz3s3g\">Cowboys superstar Micah Parsons remains in limbo as he awaits his new blockbuster contract extension which is expected to make him the highest-paid non-quarterback in the league.<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_t34eg08ry\">Both sides have remained optimistic that a deal will get done, but no progress has been made.<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_m02rvb4lh\"><strong>MORE: <\/strong>Former NFL coach exposes massive problem with Cowboys&#8217; defense<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_slxnekw3k\">With training camp around the corner, the team would like to get a deal done sooner rather than later to avoid any distractions.<\/p>\n<div class=\"\" data-mm-id=\"_quw6ioqoo\">\n<div>\n<figure data-id=\"_quw6ioqoo\" data-mm-type=\"image\"><canvas><\/canvas><picture><source \/><source \/><source \/><img title=\"Dallas Cowboys linebacker Micah Parsons celebrates with safety Jayron Kearse after making a sack.\" alt=\"Micah Parsons continues to be Dallas Cowboys biggest storyline\" \/><\/picture><\/figure>\n<p>Dallas Cowboys linebacker Micah Parsons celebrates with safety Jayron Kearse after making a sack. \/ Bob Donnan-Imagn Images<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_bdnemjynr\">In a recent post by The Athletic, Cowboys insider Jon Machota discussed the Parsons situation and whether the superstar edge rusher will be on the field for training camp without a deal.<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_v97161e9f\">&#8220;The Cowboys have several key players scheduled to become unrestricted free agents at the end of the season, but none of their financial situations come close to Parsons\u2019, who is in the fifth year of his rookie deal. Parsons did not attend organized team activities but was in attendance for mandatory minicamp. He has said that he will be in California for the start of training camp whether or not a new deal has been reached,&#8221; he wrote.<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_3p6xlvmdw\">&#8220;However, he did not confirm if he would be doing on-field work without a new contract. It seems likely that he will not participate if that\u2019s the case. With Dallas being in the first year with a new head coach and largely new coaching staff, it seems to be in everyone\u2019s best interest for Parsons and the Cowboys to get something worked out before the first camp practice, which is scheduled for July 22.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_bixo1fj35\"><strong>MORE: <\/strong>3 most grossly overrated Dallas Cowboys players right now<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_iucc43mpx\">While Parsons will be in Oxnard, the Cowboys need to act fast to get a deal done so Parsons can begin taking the necessary steps to get ready for the season.<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_3u37lzous\">There is no denying the impact Parsons makes on the field, so Jerry Jones and company need to stop dragging their feet.<\/p>\n<div class=\"\" data-mm-id=\"_ke7zufu7g\">\n<div>\n<figure data-id=\"_ke7zufu7g\" data-mm-type=\"image\"><canvas><\/canvas><picture><source \/><source \/><source \/><img title=\"Dallas Cowboys linebacker Micah Parsons (11) celebrates after the game against the New York Giants at MetLife Stadium. \" alt=\"Micah Parsons continues to be Dallas Cowboys biggest storyline\" \/><\/picture><\/figure>\n<p>Dallas Cowboys linebacker Micah Parsons (11) celebrates after the game against the New York Giants at MetLife Stadium. \/ Vincent Carchietta-Imagn Images<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_ks11u2rwl\"><em><strong>\u2014 <\/strong><\/em>Enjoy free coverage of the Cowboys from Dallas Cowboys on SI <em><strong>\u2014<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_px9lq7v7y\">NFC East WR rankings: George Pickens elevates Dallas Cowboys wide receivers<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_xqxu9kfng\">Insider reveals ugly truth about Dallas Cowboys&#8217; breakout weapon<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_nbmpwh2xr\">Joe Milton III forming bond with Dallas Cowboys fan favorite wide receiver<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_tjt74dkiv\">Cowboys have major question to answer this offseason with offensive line<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_4lro6db10\">PHOTOS: KayDianna Garza, star of Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader Netflix doc<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u2014 Enjoy free coverage of the Cowboys from Dallas Cowboys on SI \u2014 NFC East WR rankings: George Pickens elevates Dallas Cowboys wide receivers Insider reveals ugl<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":67257,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-67256","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 -
