The Dallas Cowboys have expected multiple long-term deals over the last few years. Dak Prescott and CeeDee Lamb received massive contract extensions that made them some of the highest paid players at their position in the NFL.
Micah Parsons has been next on that list for a while, however, it appears that won’t be happening.
Breaking: Micah Parson Is Officially Done With The Cowboys (Report)

As a result of stalled contract talks, Micah Parsons is seeking to be traded by the Dallas Cowboys:
Parsons requested a trade from the Cowboys on Friday via his personal X account.
In particular, Parson’s statement included the following: “I no longer want to be here. … I no longer want to play for the Dallas Cowboys.”
In an offseason in which fellow edge rushers Myles Garrett and T.J. Watt landed new extensions, Parsons and the Cowboys don’t appear to be engaging in such talks anymore.
If nothing happens, Parson is set to play out the fifth-year option on his rookie contract in 2025, which is $24 million.
The star pass rusher released a lengthy statement Friday, detailing his frustrations with the team’s approach to negotiating his next contract.
Here is Parsons’ Tweet:
Thank you Dallas
