Dallas Cowboys star linebacker Micah Parsons reported to training camp in Oxnard, California, on Sunday, even as negotiations over a long-term contract extension remain unresolved. Parsons is set to play under the fifth-year option in 2025, worth roughly $24 million, but is aiming for a new deal that would reflect his status as one of the league\u2019s premier defensive players.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cowboys owner Jerry Jones expressed appreciation for Parsons’ decision to report but did not confirm when or if the standout defender would begin practicing. Jones noted the challenges of managing high-value contracts while maintaining roster balance, especially when injury risk is a factor. While Parsons has not publicly commented on the contract situation during camp, both sides appear hopeful that a resolution can be reached before the regular season kicks off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Jerry Jones has made comments about several different players for the Cowboys about their pay and injury struggles. Jones is timid to pay a max contract for someone who is not available throughout the entire season. Jones referenced players like Dak Prescott and Trevon Diggs when talking about injuries and not finishing the season. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
