FRISCO – The Dallas Cowboys’ recent approach to contract extensions has been marked by tension and last-minute decisions. Last offseason, negotiations with CeeDee Lamb and Dak Prescott dragged on until the final moments before agreements were reached, allowing fans to breathe a sigh of relief. However, such drawn-out processes leave a lasting impression, creating unease among supporters as another high-stakes situation looms in the 2025 offseason.

This time, defensive standout Micah Parsons is next in line for an extension. Speculation is already building, especially after reports surfaced on Super Bowl Sunday that the Cowboys had internally discussed the possibility of trading him. While these discussions have not advanced, they raise concerns about whether Dallas will handle Parsons’ situation in the same delayed manner as they did in 2024.

Amid the uncertainty, has Parsons himself offered a reassuring signal? During a recent episode of his podcast, The Edge with Micah Parsons, Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love jokingly suggested that Parsons should join his team. Parsons swiftly declined, reaffirming his loyalty to the Cowboys while giving a nod to team owner and general manager Jerry Jones.

“Alright, listen, I’m in one of them Druski 360 deals, you feel me? I’m a for-lifer. I can’t go nowhere. Me and Jerry Jones, we done talked, you know, that’s my dog,” Parsons said.

Perhaps Parsons is publicly standing firm in his allegiance while navigating behind-the-scenes discussions. However, as far as financial terms and contract length go, there is no indication that negotiations have officially started. While securing Parsons sooner rather than later would be ideal for Dallas, history suggests that such a proactive move is unlikely.

Ultimately, Parsons remains committed to the Cowboys, and the organization recognizes the value of keeping him in their plans. Both sides benefit from his continued presence at The Star, and no outside offer is likely to change that.
