Micah Parsons is in the middle of a major controversy with Jerry Jones and the Dallas Cowboys as he seeks a contract extension. The star defensive player is entering the final year of his rookie deal and now expects to be paid like one of the best players in the NFL.
In addition, names like T.J. Watt and Myles Garrett have reset the market by landing new contracts worth $40 million per season. Considering that both are older than Parsons, Micah expects to earn even more than that.
The Cowboys have not won the Super Bowl in 30 years and hope to keep their core group intact in the near future: Dak Prescott, CeeDee Lamb, and Parsons. The first two have already signed their spectacular contract extensions.
Will Micah Parsons get contract extension with Cowboys?
Micah Parsons will get a contract extension from the Dallas Cowboys according to Jerry Jonesâ recent remarks. However, at the moment, both sides still seem far from striking a deal.
This Thursday, rumors swirled when Parsons did not appear at the teamâs training camp practice. Apparently, the reason is that the defensive star is dealing with back problems.

A report from Todd Archer confirmed what the issue is. âFor the first time in training camp, Micah Parsons was not on the practice field Thursday with multiple sources indicating the Pro Bowl pass rusher was dealing with back tightness. He received treatment during practice. Parsons took part in the post-practice walkthrough on Thursday after not being on the field for practice.â
Parsonsâ situation is worrying since his back problems are not new. Micah had already admitted during mandatory minicamp two months ago that it was affecting him, and according to several insiders, this could be an issue complicating the contract extension negotiations.
