TBD.\u201d His avatar shows the Bible verse, Micah 7:8, which says, \u201cEven if I fall, I will rise; the Lord is my light.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2>Why Did Micah Parsons Request a Trade?<\/h2>\n<p>Parsons is under contract for $24 million under the fifth-year option in 2025, and the Cowboys theoretically could slap him with the franchise tag in 2026 and 2027 to keep him under wraps. But Parsons, a three-time All-Pro, wants a long-term financial commitment. As the preseason winds down, neither side appears willing to budge on its demands.<\/p>\n<p>Despite that, Cowboys head coach Brian Schottenheimer more or less\u00a0expects Parsons to suit up for the opener\u00a0in Philadelphia on Sept. 4.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI feel good that Micah\u2019s going to be out there against the\u00a0Philadelphia Eagles,\u201d Schottenheimer said Wednesday.<\/p>\n<p>Parsons, 26, has been mostly silent since\u00a0requesting a trade on X.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cYes I wanted to be here,\u201d Parsons wrote. \u201cI did everything I could to show that I wanted to be a Cowboy and wear the star on my helmet. I wanted to play in front of the best fans in sports and make this Americas team once again. The team my pops and I grew up cheering for way up in Harrisburg, PA.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cUnfortunately, I no longer want to be here.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<h2>What Kind of Money is Micah Parsons Seeking?<\/h2>\n<p>T.J. Watt\u00a0reset the market for premiere edge rushers in July when he inked a three-year, $123 million ($108 million guaranteed) extension with the\u00a0Pittsburgh Steelers.<\/p>\n<p>Trey Hendrickson\u00a0and\u00a0Aidan Hutchinson\u00a0are also seeking new deals, meaning the price may rise again.<\/p>\n<p>Parsons, the 12th overall pick in the 2021 draft, has become an instant star. He has 52.5 sacks and nine forced fumbles over his first four seasons with the Cowboys.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking Thursday on Michael Irvin\u2019s YouTube channel, Cowboys owner and general manager Jerry Jones said he offered Parsons a deal that \u201cwould\u2019ve made him the\u00a0highest-paid guaranteed player other than a quarterback\u00a0in the NFL.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Yet, the staredown between both sides continues.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Stacy Revere\/Getty Images Micah Parsons\u2019\u00a0relationship with the\u00a0Dallas Cowboys\u00a0is growing more contentious by the day.
