Will Micah Parsons eventually get a new deal from Dallas Cowboys? | Pro Football Talk | NFL on NBC

TO RUNNING A SUCCESSFUL FOOTBALL TEAM. WELL, 1 OF THE REASONS I BELIEVE THEY HAVE HAD THIS HABIT OF DRAGGING THEIR FEET. YEAH. WHEN IT COMES TO GETTING THEIR BEST PLAYERS SIGNED IS IT KEEPS THE STORY ALIVE? IT KEEPS IT AT THE TOP OF THE STACK. I WAS ON KJR RADIO IN SEATTLE LAST NIGHT AND MICHAEL PARSONS WAS 1 OF THE FIRST TOPICS AND IT’S LIKE, LOOK THE COWBOYS LOVE THIS IN SEATTLE WASHINGTON. YEAH WE’RE TALKING ABOUT NOT THE SEAHAWKS RIGHT NOW WE’RE TALKING ABOUT MICHAEL PARSONS IN THE DALLAS COWBOYS. HERE’S JERRY WHEN HE WAS RECENTLY ASKED FOR THE LATEST ON THE LINGERING MICHAEL PARSONS NEGOTIATIONS. IS THERE A DEADLINE TO KNOW WHETHER MICAH PARSON’S PLANS TO PLAY IN WEEK 1 OR NOT? UH, NO, NOT AT ALL. YOU DON’T HAVE DEADLINES WHEN YOU’RE PLAYING UNDER A CONTRACT. WHAT’S PREVENTING YOU GUYS FROM TALKING RIGHT NOW AGAIN, UM, THE U U REALLY SO WHY DON’T YOU TALK AGAIN? UM, NOTHING WOULD BE THAT AND UH UM WE MIGHT OR MIGHT NOT TALK AND UH THE RUSTAD GETS IN WHAT WE DO EVERY DAY NOW THAT YOU HAD IT HOME, DO YOU THINK THAT TALKS WITH PICK UP A LITTLE BIT WITH UH, I DON’T KNOW THAT. UM, UH, NECESSARILY TALKS WILL, BUT WE’VE GOT A GAME COMING AND HE’S UNDER CONTRACT. THAT REINFORCES CHRIS EVERYTHING. I’VE BEEN SAYING THEY WANT TO PAY HIM 24 MILLION THIS YEAR. THEY WANT TO KICK THIS CAN INTO NEXT YEAR. THEY GOT HIM FOR 3 MILLION LAST YEAR. THEY WANT TO GET HIM FOR 24 MILLION THIS YEAR AND THEY’LL DEAL WITH WHATEVER MORE COST BECAUSE BETWEEN NOW AND FEBRUARY, MARCH THE MARKET ISN’T GOING TO CHANGE. IT’S ALREADY DONE. IT’S CHANGING FOR THE YEAR WITH MAXX. CROSBY GOING TO 355 WITH MYLES GARRETT. GOING TO 40 TJ, WALK GOING TO 41. THERE’S NO 1 OUT THERE THAT’S GOING TO 42. I MEAN, AIDEN, HUTCHINSON IS THE ONLY 1 THAT POTENTIALLY COULD AND I DON’T THINK THAT’S GOING TO HAPPEN BEFORE. MICAH PARSONS IS ON, NOT ON DECK, BUT ACTUALLY IN THE BATTERS BOX. SO LET’S GET HIM FOR 24. HE CARRIES THE INJURY RISK THIS YEAR AND THEN IF HE GETS THROUGH THIS SEASON, HEALTHY, WE’LL SEE WHERE WE ARE. I BELIEVE THAT’S WHAT THEY WANT TO DO. AND I BELIEVE THAT’S WHY HE SHOULD NOT HAVE SHOWN UP. HE SHOULD HAVE HELD OUT THE CBA MAKES IT SO MUCH MORE EXPENSIVE AND DIFFICULT TO HOLD OUT THAN IT USED TO BE. HE SHOULD HAVE HELD OUT BECAUSE THE GUYS WHO HAVE HELD OUT FOR THE COWBOYS IN RECENT YEARS, EZEKIEL ELLIOTT IN 2019 AND GOT THEIR MONEY. WHEN YOU DON’T HOLD OUT, THEY ONLY PAY YOU AT THE LAST POSSIBLE MOMENT LIKE THEY DID WITH DAK PRESCOTT LAST YEAR AS HE WAS ENTERING, WEEK, 1 OF THE LAST YEAR OF HIS CONTRACT. HE WOULD HAVE BEEN A FREE AGENT. THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN SALARY, CAP CHAOS, AND HE MADE IT CLEAR. IF WE DON’T DO IT BY WEEK 1, WE’RE NOT DOING IT. THAT’S WHEN THEY DID IT. SO THE LOOK THEY DON’T HAVE THAT URGENCY AND I THINK THEY WOULD LOVE. LOVE, LOVE TO KEEP THEM FOR 24 TO NOT PLAY. THEY’RE GOING TO CALL HIS BLUFF WITH THE BACK TIGHTNESS AND THEY’RE GOING TO BUY THE IDEA THAT THERE’S NO WAY HE STANDS ON THE SIDELINES FOR 17 GAMES THIS YEAR. YEAH, I THEN HE NEEDS TO FIGURE SOMETHING OUT. HE’S GOT TO FIGURE SOMETHING OUT. I I DON’T KNOW WHAT EXACTLY HE CAN DO THERE. MAYBE HE PLAYS MAYBE HE JUST HAS TO PLAY AND BE CAREFUL SO HE CAN PROTECT THE LONG TERM INVESTMENT. HE’S GOING TO HAVE TO FIGURE SOMETHING OUT THAT WAY. MAYBE HE GOES, I PLAY, BUT YOU CAN’T FRANCHISE TAG ME AFTER THE LIKE THAT. USE ANY OF THOSE TOOLS AND AND AND THEN MAYBE HE PLAYS AND YOU MAKE HIM SO ANGRY THAT HE JUST GOES. I DON’T WANT TO EVER PLAY HERE, EVER AGAIN, THAT’S TO ME WHAT I WOULD WORRY ABOUT HERE. I THINK YOU’VE GOTTEN TO THAT POINT A LITTLE BIT, BUT I DON’T THINK MICHAEL PARSONS MESS AROUND. I AGAIN WEEK ON ON X OR TWITTER, WHATEVER THE HELL IT’S CALLED AND AND THAT STATEMENT THERE THAT. YEAH, I DON’T THINK HE’S THE KIND OF GUY THAT THAT PUTS THAT STATEMENT OUT. UNLESS HE’S STARTING TO GO, WAIT, I I GOT TO THINK OF ANOTHER WAY. MAYBE I DO HAVE TO GO TO ANOTHER TEAM. MAYBE I HAVE TO LEAVE THE COWBOYS, MAYBE THAT IS IT NOW. THERE’S 2 THINGS THERE THAT JERRY. DID I DO THINK HE’S BEING CAREFUL, RIGHT? I DO. AND HE’S USING STRONG WORDS LIKE THERE’S NO DEADLINES WHEN YOU’RE UNDER CONTRACT, RIGHT? THERE’S NO DEADLINES. RIGHT? OKAY. I HEAR YOU BUT SEE THIS IS WHERE I JUST DON’T LIKE THIS. YOU KNOW? BOO, THIS BOO CRAP. OKAY, IT’S BULL CRAP. AND SO THE THE WHOLE CONTRACT HONORING THING LISTEN, JERRY GOT TO WHERE HE GOT A LITTLE BIT BY DISPUTING CONTRACTS. THERE WAS WHAT HEY, THE NFL SPONSORED BY DEAL BETWEEN THE NFL AND WHAT IT WAS ALL SUPPOSED TO BE. HE SAID, NO, I DON’T LIKE THAT CONTRACT. I WANT TO MAKE MY OWN PEPSI DEAL. HE DID ALL THESE THINGS CONTRACT CONTRACT CONTRACT. SO I DON’T WANT TO HEAR LIKE, OH NOW WE CAN’T LISTEN TO THE PLAYER WHO DOESN’T WANT TO ABIDE BY THE CONTRACT, BUT YOU DIDN’T WANT TO ABIDE BY THE NFL RULES IN THEIR CONTRACTS THERE AND YOU TOOK THEM TO COURT AND MADE A BIG DEAL AND GOT YOUR WAY FINALLY. SO LIKE, YOU KNOW, SPARE ME THAT BULL CRAP WITH THE CONTRACT STUFF IS WHAT I WOULD TELL JERRY, I, I DON’T WANT TO HEAR THAT. THAT’S SIDES OF YOUR MOUTH THERE. WELL, AND HERE’S THE REALITY AND I’M GLAD YOU MENTIONED IT BECAUSE I WATCHED HARD KNOCKS YESTERDAY AFTERNOON. YEAH, TO SEE WHETHER TO WHAT EXTENT THEY ADDRESSED THE JAMES COOK HOLDEN AND THEY DID CHECK THE BOX, THEY HAD TO, THEY HAD TO IT WOULD HAVE BEEN BEYOND PATHETIC IF THEY HAD IGNORED IT. BUT IN THE NARRATION FROM LE OF SHRIBER, HE SAYS THIS AT 1 POINT. STAR RUNNING BACK. JAMES COOK IS IN THE FINAL YEAR OF THE CONTRACT. HE SIGNED AS A ROOKIE BUT, BUT SIGN YOUR CONTRACT AS A ROOKIE, YOU’RE DRAFTED, AND HERE IT IS. AS IT RELATES TO THE MONEY THAT YOU’RE GOING TO MAKE, THERE IS NOTHING THAT CAN BE NEGOTIATED. IT IS DRIVEN BY THE SLOT IN WHICH YOU WERE DRAFTED. YOU CAN’T GET MORE, THEY CAN’T GET YOU TO TAKE LESS IT. YOU CAN HAVE YOUR AS IT RELATES TO THE MONEY YOU CAN HAVE YOUR SIGNING YOU CAN HAVE CERTAIN LANGUAGE AS TO VOIDING OF GUARANTEES, BUT THE DOLLARS AREN’T CHANGING, RIGHT? SO WHEN YOU SAY JAMES COOK IS IN THE FINAL YEAR OF THE CONTRACT, HE SIGNED AS A ROOKIE, HEY, LEAVE, HE HAD NO CHOICE BUT TO SIGN THAT CONTRACT, MICAH PARSONS HAD NO CHOICE BUT TO SIGN THAT CONTRACT. THAT’S WHY YOU KNOW LIKE WITH THOSE GUYS VERSUS CAM HEYWARD WITH CAM AND I LOVE CAM BUT I’M KIND OF LIKE, DUDE, YOU SIGNED THAT CONTRACT LAST YEAR. LIKE YEAH. THAT’S YOU COULD HAVE PLAYED OUT. YOU COULD HAVE PLAYED OUT AND BECOME AN ALL-PRO, YOU’RE TRYING TO HERE. YOU WANT THE SECURITY OF THE 145 AND YOU WANT TO HAVE THE ABILITY TO COME BACK AND SAY, I’D LIKE A LITTLE MORE, THAT’S DIFFERENT. IT IS, THERE WAS NOTHING FOR PART. PARSONS PARSONS DIDN’T EVEN SIGN THIS PART. THIS IS A CBA CREATION WHERE YOU GET THE ABILITY TO SQUAT ON THE GUY FOR A FIFTH YEAR. IF HE’S A FIRST ROUND PICK, THAT IS RIDICULOUS. YOU KNOW, IT’S BETTER TO NOT BE A FIRST ROUND PICK IF YOU’RE LIKE AFTER PICK 20. YEAH. YOU’RE BETTER OFF FALLING INTO ROUND 2 BECAUSE IF YOU’RE A FIRST ROUND, IT’S THIS ARBITRARY. IF YOU’RE 1 OF THE FIRST 32 PLAYERS PICKED, BOOM. YOUR TEAM CAN SIT ON YOUR HEAD FOR A YEAR AND KEEP YOU FROM EITHER BEING FRANCHISED TAGGED OR BECOMING A FREE AGENT. IT REALLY IS BULL CRAP. SO, DON’T TELL ME HE’S NOT UNDER CONTRACT. JERRY, HE’S UNDER, HE’S UNDER THE, THE BURDEN ARTIFICIALLY CREATED OF THE CBA THAT ALLOWS YOU TO NOT PAY HIM WHAT HE’S WORTH. THAT’S WHAT HE’S UNDER. THAT’S EXACTLY RIGHT. THAT’S EXACTLY RIGHT. AND THEN HEY FOR THE BUSINESSMAN HE IS AND THE THE THINGS HE’S CHALLENGED THROUGHOUT HIS LIFE AND HEY A LOT OF THOSE THINGS HAVE BEEN GOOD FOR THE NFL. I I DON’T KNOW HOW HE CAN’T RESPECT MICHAEL PARSON’S STAND HERE, BUT YEAH, IT DOES SEEM LIKE IT’S GETTING A LITTLE, I DON’T KNOW, A LITTLE UGLY, A LITTLE TESTY. IT DOES. LIKE I SAID ON MONDAY, AND WE WERE TALKING ABOUT A LITTLE BIT RIGHT WHERE IT. IT FEELS LIKE SOMEBODY TOLD JERRY LIKE HEY JUST BE PLAIN AND SIMPLE TALKING ABOUT MICAH OFF. YOU KNOW, YOU’RE MAKING THINGS WORSE, YOU’RE NOT GOING TO GET THIS DONE. AND I FEEL LIKE EVER SINCE UH, LAST WEEK WITH MICAH MAKING THOSE COMMENTS AND AND PEOPLE GETTING ON, JERRY, I FEEL LIKE HIS ANSWERS HAVE BEEN VERY SHORT AND TO THE POINT WHEN IT COMES TO THIS SITUATION AND UH, YEAH, IT AND WITH MICAH NOT REALLY TALKING OR DOING ANYTHING THERE, IT SEEMS LIKE IT’S GETTING A LITTLE UGLY IN IN DALLAS. WELL, AND LOOK, IT’S NOT ABOUT WATCH WHAT YOU SAY OR YOU’RE NOT GOING TO GET AT THIS POINT, IT’S ABOUT. UNDERSTANDING WHAT IT’S GOING TO TAKE TO GET HIM TO SHOW UP AND PLAY. I I REALLY DO BELIEVE THEY’RE NOT GOING TO SIGN HIM. I REALLY DO BELIEVE THEY’RE GOING TO PAY HIM 24 MILLION THIS YEAR. AND THE QUESTION IS, WILL HE PLAY OR WILL HE SIGHT BACK TIGHTNESS? AND I THINK THEY’RE MAKING THE BET THAT MICAH CAN’T DEPRIVE HIMSELF OF THE THING. HE LOVES TO DO BECAUSE HE DIDN’T HOLD OUT. YEAH NOW I UNDERSTAND HOLDING OUT WOULD HAVE BEEN MORE EXPENSIVE BUT I’M HERE FOR MY TEAMMATES, YOU KNOW, HE WANTS TO BE AROUND THE GAME, HE WANTS TO AND HOW CAN YOU NOT PLAY? YOU’VE PLAYED FOOTBALL SINCE YOU WERE A LITTLE BOY, HOW CAN YOU NOT PLAY? HOW CAN YOU NOT DO IT? SO I THINK THAT THAT IS WHAT THEY’RE HOPING TO DO. LET’S SEE WHAT HE DOES THIS YEAR AND BECAUSE IF YOU’RE GOING TO TRADE HIM, LIKE WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO GET FOR? WHAT ARE YOU GOING YOU TRADE HIM. WHAT ARE YOU GET DRAFT PICKS. OKAY? IN WHAT DRAFT THIS 1’S OVER? YEAH. PICKS FOR NEXT YEAR. IF, TRADE HIM NEXT YEAR. HIM BEFORE THE 2025 DRAFT, TRADING HIM NOW IS NO DIFFERENT THAN TRADING HIM IN MARCH. I THINK THEY’RE GOING TO GET THROUGH THIS YEAR AND THEN THEY’RE GOING TO DECIDE WHAT TO DO WHETHER THEY SIGN HIM OR WHETHER THEY TRADE HIM. BUT FOR NOW IT’S VERY SIMPLE. AND I MAY MAKE THE SAME DECISION LOOK GUYS, MAKING 24 MILLION THIS YEAR. HE IS UNDER CONTRACT, EVEN IF THE WHOLE APPARATUS STINKS FOR HIM. WHAT’S HE GOING TO DO? WHAT’S HE GOING TO DO? HE’S GOING TO PLAY FOOTBALL, OR HE’S NOT. AND YOU KNOW WHAT? IF HE DOESN’T PLAY SOME POINT THE FANS ARE GOING TO AND IF WE STICK THIS YEAR, MAYBE THEY’LL BLAME HIM YEAH, MAYBE MAYBE. BUT I I WOULD SAY, YOU KNOW, THAT’LL BE THE END OF THE MARRIAGE ALTOGETHER AND I DON’T THINK THERE’S GOING TO FROM THERE AND THEN YOU KNOW TOO MICAH HEY YOU DO THAT YOU PLAY THAT WAY RIGHT. ALL THE THINGS YOU SAID BUT YEAH MICAH MIGHT HAVE TO LIKE YOU SAID, OH MY BACK’S TIGHT OR OH WAIT IT’S A BIG THIRD DOWN IN THE GAME. WELL I’M TIRED I GOT TO COME OUT SORRY PUT PUT THE ROOKIE IN. PUT SOMEBODY ELSE IN. I’M TIRED. SORRY, BIG FOURTH QUARTER PLAY HERE, I PROBABLY COULD SACK JAYLEN HURTS BUT I’M OUT, I’M TIRED. SORRY. I MEAN HE MIGHT HAVE TO DO IT AGAINST YOU. THEY USE YOUR LOVE OF IT AGAINST YOU. WE’VE TALKED ABOUT THIS, LIKE WITH A PLAYER LIKE AIDEN HUTCHINSON IN DETROIT, THEY’RE GOING TO USE THE FACT THAT HE WANTS TO STAY IN DETROIT AGAINST HIM. THE VIKINGS TRY TO DO THAT WITH MATT BURKE YEARS AGO, HE DIDN’T WANT TO LEAVE MINNESOTA, WE’LL USE IT AGAINST HIM. WE’LL LOW BALL, I MEAN IT UP IN THEIR FACES SO THEY’RE USING THE COWBOYS ARE USING, MICAH PARSONS LOVE OF FOOTBALL AGAINST HIM. HERE THEY ARE DARING HIM TO NOT PLAY. THEY ARE DARING HIM TO DEPRIVE HIMSELF OF THE THING. HE LOVES. WE TALK ABOUT THIS ALL THE TIME WITH FANDOM LIKE LIKE, YOU KNOW, THE ONLY WAY TO SEND A MESSAGE TO THE NFL TO THE TEAMS IS THE BOYCOTT. DO YOU, ARE YOU GOING TO DEPRIVE YOURSELF OF THE THING? YOU LOVE, EVEN IF YOU HATE IT AT TIMES, EVEN IF IT DRIVES YOU CRAZY, YOU LOVE GOING TO THE GAMES. YOU LOVE WATCHING THE GAMES. YOU LOVE READING FOR YOUR TEAM. OH WE CAN SEND A MESSAGE TO OWNERSHIP BY BOYCOTTING. YEAH. AND TO GET THERE, YOU HAVE TO DEPRIVE YOURSELF OF THE THING. YOU LOVE. I JUST THINK THAT THEY’RE DARING HIM TO HE LOVES. I I YOU’RE RIGHT. RIGHT, MIKE. WE WE TALK ABOUT THIS ALL THE TIME. IT’S THE HARDEST THING ABOUT THIS WHOLE THING AND THIS IS WHERE YEAH, SOME OF THESE TOOLS THAT THE THE OWNERS HAVE AT THEIR DISPOSAL BECAUSE OF THE CBA THEY GOT TO BE THEY GOT TO BE ABOLISHED THE NEXT TIME AROUND. IT’S JUST IT’S IT’S NOT FAIR TO THE PLAYERS. YEAH, I KNOW. YOU’RE RIGHT. GOOD LUCK BUT YOU’RE YOU’RE TOTALLY RIGHT. AND YOU KNOW AGAIN THIS IS WHERE I FEEL FOR MICAH BECAUSE HE’S CONTINUED TO DO EVERYTHING RIGHT, HE REALLY HAS DOING IT. ALL RIGHT? DEFINITELY THE BEST 1 OF THE BEST DEFENSIVE PLAYERS IN THE IN FOOTBALL. I TAKE HIM OVER MYLES, GARRETT OR TJ WATT RIGHT NOW TO START A DEFENSE IN MY TEAM. HE’S YOUNGER, HE’S 4 YEARS YOUNGER THAN THE PRIME OF HIS CAREER. HE’S STILL HE’S STILL GOING UPWARDS. I MEAN THAT’S THE BIGGEST THING. AND UH, YEAH, IT’S JUST, I, I FEEL FOR HIM IN THIS SITUATION BUT YEAH, IT DOESN’T SEEM LIKE THERE ANYWHERE CLOSE TO TO GETTING ANYTHING DONE HERE. BY THE WAY, MICAH WAS ASKED YESTERDAY FOR A COMMENT ON THE SITUATION. HE SAID MY MOUTH IS CLOSED. NOW HE’S NEVER SAID ANYTHING TO TAKE BACK WHAT HE POSTED ON TWITTER 13 DAYS AGO THAT HE WANTS TO BE TRADED. AND I THINK THAT STANDS AND THAT MAY NOT CHANGE AND HE MAY RELUCTANTLY PLAY FOR THE COWBOYS THIS YEAR BECAUSE HE’S GOT NO OTHER CHOICE IF HE WANTS TO PLAY FOOTBALL BUT TRADE MAY BE WHAT HAPPENS AFTER THE
