<\/p>\nThe NFL world was shocked when Jerry Jones opted not to give Micah Parsons a contract extension \u2014 trading him to the Green Bay Packers for Kenny Clark and two first-round picks.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the Dallas Cowboys don’t appear to have any chance of contention as their lone win came in overtime against a winless New York Giants team.<\/p>\n Despite the two teams \u2014 and particularly, the two defenses \u2014 trending in opposite directions, Jones has not shown any regret about his decision to move on from Parsons. Instead, ahead of the four-time Pro Bowler’s return to AT&T Stadium on Sunday Night Football<\/em> this weekend, the Cowboys owner continues to provide him bulletin board material.<\/p>\n While Parsons has seemingly moved past being traded from Dallas, Jones has not been able to stop talking about his former superstar pass-rusher. During an appearance on 105.3 The Fan on Friday, the Cowboys owner doubled down on his stance.<\/p>\n “Let’s make no mistake about it, Micah is special and we all know he is and he can be disruptive, but we have huge amounts of experience with the anecdotes that we’ve seen used on us for the last four years,” said Jones.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n “And while he does make great plays, there is also a way to approach playing against Micah, as we know because we didn’t exactly win the Super Bowl during those years. So, bottom line is, when I look at playing him, I think of trying to have him as an advantage when we were playing other teams over the last four years. And some plays, it looks beautiful, but then other plays \u2014 especially running plays \u2014 you can wish you would’ve had a different formation.”<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n While Jones can deny the all-around brilliance of Parsons’, the stats don’t lie. In his four seasons in Dallas, the 12th overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft recorded 256 total tackles, 172 solo tackles, 63 tackles for loss, 52.5 sacks, 112 quarterback hits, nine forced fumbles, four fumble recoveries, nine passes defended, and one defensive touchdown. He ranked fifth in the NFL in sacks over that period.<\/p>\n Furthermore, Green Bay’s defense has been among the best in the league in 2025, ranking first in scoring defense, third in total yards allowed, and fifth in sacks.<\/p>\n The Cowboys’ defense, on the other hand, ranks 27th in scoring defense, 30th in total yards allowed, and 28th in sacks. Jones’s comments throughout the week will continue to fuel Parsons and the Packers’ defense to have yet another big day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Jerry Jones continues to give Micah Parsons bulletin board material ahead of the Green Bay Packers’ Sunday Night Football matchup with the Dallas Cowboys.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":33911,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4,6],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-33910","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-dallas-cowboys","category-green-bay-packers"],"yoast_head":"\nJerry Jones gives Micah Parsons more bulletin board material ahead of Packers-Cowboys<\/h2>\n
