Jerry Jones expressed a desire for Micah Parsons to participate in voluntary offseason workouts, emphasizing the need for him to “elevate leadership” as he approaches becoming the highest-paid non-quarterback in the NFL. While Parsons has engaged in most voluntary activities to learn new coordinator Matt Eberflus’ defense, he stated that he won’t do on-field work until securing a contract extension, highlighting the importance of being prepared for Week 1 and not wanting to start the season slowly. Jones indicated that a deal may be close but lacks urgency, and Parsons hinted he wouldn’t join training camp without a signed contract.
