Micah Parsons reveals Cowboys mini-camp status with contract extension not yet reached: In the owners hands

The latest in the Micah Parsons contract drama spells good and bad news for Cowboys fans. Parsons has yet to strike a deal with Dallas on a potentially record-breaking extension, but the superstar pass rusher assured fans he’ll be attending next week’s mandatory mini-camp nonetheless.“I will be there!” Parsons posted on X on Tuesday.“I haven’t missed a mini camp in 4 years! Even though the contract is not done, I have teammates and a playbook! I’m preparing as if I will be on the field the first week of camp! But it’s in the owner’s hands.

I’m ready to win a Super Bowl!”The post backed up Dallas’ first-time head coach Brian Schottenheimer, who voiced his confidence earlier in the day Tuesday that Parsons would be in attendance for the minicamp running from from June 10-12.“I would assume,” Schottenheimer said.“Micah and I talked a couple of days ago.

He’s doing a little bit of traveling but again, everything that he and I talked about, I expect that he will be here.I say Micah and I have had great communication and everything that I’ve asked him to do and vice versa, he’s followed through on so, I expect to see him.”Parsons had been in and out of the Cowboys’ voluntary OTAs over the last few weeks. The 26-year-old is entering the fifth and final year of his rookie contract, and is set to make a fully guaranteed $24 million in 2025.But an extension would secure the four-time Pro-Bowler and two-time All-Pro an enormous raise, although, as Parsons said, owner Jerry Jones would have to approve such a move. A new deal for Parsons could overtake Myles Garrett’s four-year, $160 million contract as the richest for a defensive player in NFL history. In his four seasons with Dallas, Parsons has notched the stats to justify such a pay bump.He tallied a total of 52.5 sacks and 63 tackles for loss (TfL) – including 12 sacks and 12 TFL in 13 games last season. ...
