Micah Parsons Is Becoming Wildly Expensive, and Jerry Jones and the Cowboys only Have Themselves to Blame

DALLAS COUNTY, TEXAS, JUL 16 – Micah Parsons remains unsigned as Cowboys face a pivotal season with a 10-3 record and a clear path to the NFC East title, risking roster changes in 2026.

  • Entering their bye week, with Prescott in his final contract year and Parsons in his prime yet unsigned, the Cowboys at 7-2 aim for a Super Bowl run.
  • Known for late-cycle signings, after pushing Dak Prescott’s extension to the final hour and delaying CeeDee Lamb’s deal, the Cowboys are again leaving Parsons’s contract until late in the offseason.
  • Market resets show T.J. Watt’s three-year, $123 million deal at $41 million per year and Myles Garrett’s four-year, $160 million contract at $40 million annually, putting pressure on Parsons’s >$40 million projection.
  • With training camp starting next week, Micah Parsons declared `I'm going to get mine no matter what`, while blaming owner Jerry Jones for the stall as no extension is in place.
  • Without swift action, Dallas Cowboys risk losing key players like DaRon Bland and Tyler Smith to contract issues by 2026.
