Watt puts fan on blast over Micah Parsons trade drama with Cowboys"},"content":{"rendered":"<article>The Dallas Cowboys are in a messy contract dispute with superstar Micah Parsons. Dallas has yet to offer a new contract to Parsons, which led him to request a trade from the Cowboys. The drama has sparked feverish debate in NFL circles, even dragging former NFL players and fans into the mix.<\/p>\n<p>Former Texans legend J.J. Watt spared with a fan on social media over Micah Parsons&#8217; contract drama with the Cowboys.<\/p>\n<p>The fan suggested that Parsons should play in 2025 because he signed his fifth-year option. But Watt fired back by reminding the fan that NFL owners do not always honor the contracts they hand out either.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAh yes, NFL owners are notorious for honoring contracts,\u201d Watt replied on social media. \u201cThey would never dare cut a player early and terminate his contract before it\u2019s completed.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Watt is clearly referencing Cowboys owner Jerry Jones&#8217; recent comments. Watt raised eyebrows earlier in training camp when he slighted Micah Parsons&#8217; availability during an interview.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJust because we sign him doesn&#8217;t mean we&#8217;re going to have him,\u201d Jones said. \u201cHe was hurt six games last year [actually four]. Seriously. I remember signing a player for the highest-paid at the position in the league and he got knocked out two-thirds of the year in Dak Prescott. So there&#8217;s a lot of things you can think about, just as the player does, when you&#8217;re thinking about committing and guaranteeing money.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It is great to see Watt go to bat for his fellow edge rushers, even if it is just responding to a random fan on social media.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Cowboys&#8217; Jerry Jones makes shocking claim about Micah Parsons contract offer<\/strong><\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3470965\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3470965\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/wp.clutchpoints.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Cowboys-owner-Jerry-Jones-1.jpg\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wp.clutchpoints.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Cowboys-owner-Jerry-Jones-1.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/wp.clutchpoints.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Cowboys-owner-Jerry-Jones-1.jpg?resize=300,168 300w, https:\/\/wp.clutchpoints.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Cowboys-owner-Jerry-Jones-1.jpg?resize=768,431 768w, https:\/\/wp.clutchpoints.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Cowboys-owner-Jerry-Jones-1.jpg?resize=1024,574 1024w, https:\/\/wp.clutchpoints.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Cowboys-owner-Jerry-Jones-1.jpg?resize=150,84 150w\" alt=\"J.J.

That\u2019s what you don\u2019t know.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Jones also claimed that it was Parsons himself backed out of the alleged contract proposal.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMicah took it off,\u201d Jones admitted. \u201cHe took it off. That\u2019s very important.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This conflicts with reporting from ESPN&#8217;s Adam Schefter that Dallas had not even submitted a contract proposal to Parsons&#8217; camp as of July 22nd.<\/p>\n<p>It is possible that Jones and the Cowboys made an offer to Parsons after July 22nd, and that this is the offer Jones is referring to. Even if that is true, clearly the offer was not good enough.<\/p>\n<p>Hopefully the Cowboys can patch things up with Parsons very soon. Otherwise the drama threatens to hang over Dallas into the regular season.<\/p>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Former Texans legend J.J.
