Before the 2025-26 NFL regular season, the contract situation of Micah Parsons remains unresolved. The Dallas Cowboys star has not reached an agreement with Jerry Jones, leaving fans full of doubts. How long will this last? What will happen with the Cowboys’ standout player?
This has become one of the most controversial situations in football today. Parsons continues to clash with Jones while the preseason unfolds.
A noticeable absence in the Cowboys roster
According to Bolavip, Parsons’ absence from training camp and preseason games shocked everyone. The All-Pro linebacker remains in limbo while the Cowboys decide his future.

Parsons now faces another risk: a potential four-game suspension without pay worth $5.33 million. Meanwhile, the linebacker officially requested a trade, and still hasn’t reached an agreement with Jones.
This conflict places the Dallas Cowboys between a rock and a hard place. They must either fix things with Parsons or let him go so he can sign with another NFL team.
