In a blockbuster move just a week before the 2025 NFL season kicks off, the Dallas Cowboys have traded All-Pro defensive end Micah Parsons to the Green Bay Packers in exchange for Pro Bowl star Kenny Clark and two first-round picks in 2026 and 2027.
The deal ends what many believed would be a career-long tenure for Parsons in Dallas, following months of tense contract negotiations and a formal trade request earlier this month. Green Bay wasted no time securing their new defensive centerpiece, signing Parsons to a four-year, $188 million extension with $136 million guaranteed, which set a record that makes him the highest-paid non-quarterback in league history.
Despite the acrimony, Parsons released a statement expressing gratitude toward Dallas fans and teammates, calling the move “a sad day but not a bitter one”. The two teams will meet in a highly anticipated Week 4 “Sunday Night Football” clash in Dallas, where Parsons will face his former team for the first time.
Jerry Jones Called “Idiotic” for Micah Parsons Trade
The Dallas Cowboys’ decision to trade star pass-rusher Micah Parsons to the Green Bay Packers has sparked widespread disbelief across the NFL, with people on the top calling out the move.
In a post by Jordan Schultz, an anonymous NFL exec reportedly expressed their honest thoughts on the move that Jerry Jones and the Cowboys front office did with Parsons.
“Why on earth would you do this now and not in March?” the exec said. “Beyond idiotic.”
