One of the biggest elephants in the Dallas Cowboys locker room is the contract that will eventually come Micah Parsons’ way. The defensive superstar is in line for a blockbuster contract extension, whether it be with the Cowboys or another NFL franchise.

There have been reports and rumors all offseason that Parsons’ deal will make him the highest-paid non-quarterback in league history.

As Cowboys Nation waits for a deal to get done, Bleacher Reports’ Kristopher Knox is providing some hope.

“Parsons is set to be a free agent in 2026. While his guaranteed $24 million salary for this season is respectable, it pales when compared to top-of-the-market edge-rusher Myles Garrett ($40 million annually). Parsons has little reason to take the field without a new deal, and Dallas is highly likely to appease him with a record-setting deal,” he wrote.

“The Cowboys waited until quarterback Dak Prescott was in a contract year before giving him a historically high $60 million-per-year extension. Expect Parsons’ extension to outpace that of Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase, who is currently the league’s highest-paid non-quarterback at $40.3 million annually.”

Parsons showed up to the team’s first voluntary workout this offseason and has spent some time around the team during OTAs.

The star pass rusher is doing his best to show the Cowboys some good faith, but the front office needs to get to work to get a deal done. Once a Parsons extension is completed, more cap space will be open and the team will be able to get after some other key contract negotiations.
