Report: Micah Parsons seeking record-breaking $200M deal from Cowboys

The bill is coming due for the Dallas Cowboys’ star edge rusher – the number will only continue to grow as time moves on. It’s a hefty price tag already.

Parsons is eyeing one of the biggest contracts in NFL history, according to The Dallas Morning News.

Per the report, Parsons is said to be seeking a $200 million contract, which would be the largest deal ever for a non-quarterback.

The Cowboys reportedly met with Parsons’ agent, David Mulugheta, at the NFL combine to have early discussions about the contract, but haven’t held any since. The Dallas Morning News also reported that team owner Jerry Jones has spoken with Parsons about the contract.

It’s a risky game for the Cowboys to play if they delay in getting something done.

This offseason has featured plenty of big-money contract extensions. The Las Vegas Raiders awarded Maxx Crosby with a three-year, $106.5 million deal that made him the highest-paid non-quarterback in league history.

Myles Garrett proceeded to break that record with a four-year, $160 million megadeal that keeps the star with the Cleveland Browns. Then it was Ja’Marr Chase’s turn to break the record. The Cincinnati Bengals finally inked the star receiver to a long-term deal, which is set to cost them $161 million over four years.

It appears the Cowboys would have to break Chase’s record, while getting the deal done before more stars around the league, like the Pittsburgh Steelers’ T.J. Watt, jump the line.

From a positional standpoint, Parsons appears to be in a good spot compared to Garrett as it relates to age. Parsons is just 25 while Garrett is 29.

It’s unclear if the edge rusher will hold out in the absence of an extension. Dallas got deals done for Dak Prescott and CeeDee Lamb last offseason, but this one also figures to break the bank – and for good reason.

Parsons has registered at least 12 sacks in all four of his seasons, totaling 52.5 in 63 games. That includes 12 in just 13 games last season.

One of the league’s best defenders is set to cash in. The only mystery is when it will be and how much it will cost the Cowboys.

After all, everything’s bigger in Texas. Especially the contracts.
