The Dallas Cowboys front office (featuring Jerry and Stephen Jones) is notoriously known for playing hardball – well, let’s call it “slow-ball” – when it comes time to pay their superstars.
Last offseason, the talk of the entire summer was the looming contract extensions of CeeDee Lamb and Dak Prescott. Both received extensions from Dallas prior to the start of the regular season.
The players won the negotiations. But it took time.
However, Lamb and Prescott went about getting their money differently. Prescott (who got $60 million per year) was present during training camp and continued to practice, but Lamb (who got $35 million) held out to force the hands of the Cowboys.
Superstar pass-rusher Micah Parsons is up for a new deal and entering the final year of his rookie contract.
How will Parsons go about negotiations this summer? Will he skip training camp like Lamb or be there for his teammates?
According to his brother Terrence Parsons Jr, Micah has a plan.
“Micah will be at camp,” Terrence Parsons posted on X.
Good … because as the NFL released the Dallas schedule on Wednesday, it is clear that getting off to a good start is all-important.
And that can’t happen if Micah isn’t fully ready to roll.
