The Falcons should call about Micah Parsons, but it certainly won’t be cheap

Leave it to the Dallas Cowboys to hijack an otherwise normal day of training camp news.

According to Micah Parsons himself, the two-time All-Pro edge rusher has requested a trade amid growing frustration over his contract situation.

Parsons ranks sixth all-time in sacks through his first four seasons with 52.5, joining an exclusive club that includes Reggie White, Al “Bubba” Baker, Derrick Thomas, J.J. Watt, DeMarcus Ware, and Dwight Freeney.

A pass rusher in that kind of rarified air fits any team, especially a team like the Atlanta Falcons, who rank 31st in sacks (245) since 2017.
