The Dallas Cowboys are delaying contract extensions for star players, leaving edge rusher Micah Parsons confused as he waits for his deal after becoming eligible post-2023 season. Parsons, aiming to be the highest-paid non-quarterback, noted that with other edge rushers like T.J. Watt also seeking extensions, costs will rise, and he expects his final number to exceed initial discussions with owner Jerry Jones. While Parsons is hopeful for a deal before training camp starts on July 21, he plans to report without practicing if it isn’t finalized, as he enters the final year of his rookie contract, earning $24 million on the fifth-year option.
