Ahead of training camp officially kicking off Tuesday, one key member of the organization weighed in on the team&#8217;s biggest off-field storyline.<\/p>\n<p>Leading up to camp, there were a handful of players across the league eager to secure new contracts. Among them was Cowboys defensive standout Micah Parsons. He is entering the final year of his rookie deal and is in search of a new long-term commitment from the iconic franchise.<\/p>\n<p>Since being drafted 12th overall in 2021, Parsons has emerged as a pillar for the Cowboys franchise. He&#8217;s arguably one of the top defensive players in the\u00a0NFL\u00a0right now, resulting in two All-Pro nominations in his first four seasons.<\/p>\n<p>Along with capturing Defensive Rookie of the Year, Parsons has finished in the top three in DPOY voting on three occasions. Despite the massive impact he&#8217;s had in Dallas, the organization hasn&#8217;t appeared in any sort of rush to get a deal done.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Also read:\u00a0<\/strong>Cowboys Standouts Named Among NFL&#8217;s Top Homegrown Duos<\/p>\n<p>Before veterans arrived for camp, Cowboys owner Jerry Jones held a media availability Monday. As expected, Parsons not getting an extension this offseason came up. Based on Jones&#8217; blunt comments, it doesn&#8217;t appear that a new deal will be materializing anytime soon.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;There&#8217;s no anticipation at all,&#8221; Jones told reporters. &#8220;We&#8217;re just working with what it is. It&#8217;s not uncommon for me and not anything there&#8217;s a lot of angst over. He&#8217;s doing a real good job of being here. And that&#8217;s important. &#8230; We are where we are. And I sign the check. Period.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In some instances, disgruntled players will remain absent from camp in hopes of things getting done with the front office. However, Parsons has decided not to take this approach. Reports stated that he is in attendance for camp, which led to some praise from Jones for his professionalism.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Leadership is really big. I&#8217;m appreciative of Micah being here,&#8221; Jones said Monday.<\/p>\n<p>Jones doesn&#8217;t appear to be budging on the subject, which means Parsons will likely have to wait another year before getting paid. Though it&#8217;s not the outcome he wanted, it could work out in his favor. The market for defensive players skyrocketed recently following T.J. Watt&#8217;s historic deal with the Pittsburgh Steelers. If Parsons can put together another DPOY-level campaign in 2025, it should result in a massive payday.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As training camp gets underway, Jerry Jones gave his thoughts on Micah Parsons as the Dallas Cowboys star seeks out a new contract ahead of this season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":70480,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-70479","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 -
