You want off-season entertainment? Look no further than the Cowboys. You want the live example of a team getting jinxed because of some statements? The America’s Team is your best chance. Thanks to Jerry Jones for making the Big D into an actual circus, where the best pass-rusher is still looking for answers about his future on social media… No wonder Micah Parsons has got the majority’s support.

With no deal in place, the dreaded trade speculation has already crept in. PFF even labeled Parsons as Dallas’ “best trade asset” heading into the 2025 NFL Draft. We’ve seen this game before—just ask CeeDee Lamb, who played hardball just to get paid. So when Parsons took to social media with a scathing message about players getting “violated” by teams due to bad representation, fans took notice.

“Some of these agents don’t have the best interest for y’all man!! Wake up!!” Parsons wrote on X. “It’s sad seeing some of these players get violated by teams because of lack of decency and effort by their agents!!” That’s not just a stray tweet. He has given a warning shot. Parsons made it clear that he trusts his agent, David Mulugheta, but not all players are as lucky.

What does this mean for Dallas? Nothing good. If Parsons is already feeling some type of way about how the teams are treating the players in negotiations, don’t expect him to settle for a “team-friendly” deal. So, the Cowboys front office has a clear choice: pay up now or risk watching another star walk away. And judging by Parsons’ tone, they can’t get away with lowballing him.

For starters, CeeDee has openly voiced support for his mate. Remember when he replied to a Rapoport report sending Micah out of Dallas? The Cowboys’ receiver took it to his heart as he wrote, “Y’all aren’t tired of this? Every offseason, top of the charts. Let’s just win ball games and that’s with 11!”

But here we are—still no deal, still no progress. Jerry Jones is doing everything except locking in his star pass rusher. Micah Parsons? Frustrated and making it known. CeeDee? Still going to bat for his guy, only this time, he cranked up the volume.

“That’s my guy—I got him, he’s got me,” Lamb said, making it clear their bond isn’t just for show. He knows things are about to get messy, but he also knows Parsons’ worth. And just to silence any doubt, he dropped a bold prediction: “We’re definitely gonna retire together… Micah’s going to be in a Dallas uniform.” Confident? Yes. Guarantee? Not quite.

What’s your perspective on:

Will the Cowboys risk losing Micah Parsons over contract disputes, or will they finally pay up?

Have an interesting take?

So, don’t come after the rumors because a pass rusher like Parsons deserves some attention and pronto.

Can we see Micah Parsons going out of Dallas?

The Cowboys have a lot on their plate this offseason—free agency, the draft, filling roster gaps. But let’s be real: nothing matters more than locking down Micah Parsons. Yet, here we are, days away from the draft, and Dallas hasn’t even put an offer on the table. Not ideal. And now? He’s heading into his fifth-year option without a long-term deal. That’s like playing with a fire near a gas leak.

So, how does Parsons feel about all this? Jon Machota of The Athletic asked him directly at his charity bowling event. “No,” Parsons replied when asked if he was upset. Short. Simple. But was he about to elaborate? Maybe. Before he could say more, a Cowboys staffer swooped in, shutting down any contract-related talk. Coincidence? You tell me.

Now, let’s talk numbers. Parsons has 52.5 career sacks, four Pro Bowls, two All-Pro nods—and he’s only 25. The dude isn’t just elite; he’s generational. If Dallas lets him hit the open market, someone will throw record-breaking money at him. You have to commend Jerry’s front office for one thing: dragging out Parsons’s rookie contract for so long. But now, they must wake up because the rest of the league is taking note.

Meanwhile, Philly fans are already foaming at the mouth. Joe Giglio wasted no time stirring the pot, saying, “I want Micah Parsons on the Philadelphia Eagles.” Yeah, because that’s exactly what Dallas fans want to hear—Parsons chasing Dak Prescott in midnight green. Imagine that nightmare.

So, what’s the play here? Dallas has a history of dragging its feet with extensions, but they eventually get them done. That’s the hope the whole Cowboys Nation is clinging onto. The clock’s ticking, though. If Jerry Jones keeps stalling, he better be ready for the backlash.

Have something to say?
