The 26-year-old said he \u201cpersonally\u201d issued his trade demands to executive vice president and CEO Stephen Jones.<\/p>\n<p>Parsons is entering the fifth and final year of his rookie contract. Fed up with a lack of progress in contract negotiations, Parsons has decided that he\u2019d like a fresh start before the 2025 campaign kicks off.<\/p>\n<p>According to ESPN\u2019s Adam Schefter, the blockbuster Khalil Mack trade between the Oakland Raiders and the Chicago Bears in 2018 is a potential template for what it would cost another team to acquire Parsons.<\/p>\n<p>Before the 2018 season began, the Bears acquired the 2016 Defensive Player of the Year and two picks (a second and a conditional fifth-rounder) in exchange for two first-round selections (2019 and 2020), third and sixth-round selections. Mack then signed a $141 million contract extension.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<div dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">\n<p>A potential trade comp for Micah Parsons: When 27-year-old Khalil Mack was traded from Oakland to Chicago, the Bears gave up two first-round picks, a third-round pick, and a sixth-round pick for Mack, a second-round pick, and a conditional fifth-round pick.<\/p>\n<p>Now the 26-year-old\u2026 pic.twitter.com\/tne8jxdXMS<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>https:\/\/twitter.com\/AdamSchefter\/status\/1951348818152190073?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1951348818152190073%7Ctwgr%5Eebe8bda1e3b19399d2e79265b77cf1d2287c01ba%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&amp;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.totalprosports.com%2Fnfl%2Ftrade-compensation-for-cowboys-superstar-lb-micah-parsons-revealed%2F<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<section data-content-name=\"Trending News Incontent\" data-track-content=\"\"><\/section>\n<p>Mack was only 27 at the time, as Schefter noted, whereas Parsons is about to enter his age-26 season.
