Micah Parsons and Jerry Jones may or may not have a handshake deal. But the Cowboys edge rusher has not signed a contract extension, and by the sound of it, nothing is imminent.
The Cowboys owner said Wednesday it’s been awhile since he’s talked to Parsons.
“I haven’t talked with him in about four or five weeks, and of course, that’ll be necessary if he’s going to get a [new] contract,” Jones told Jori Epstein of Yahoo. “But he’s got a contract. That’s the point. Be sure and clear about that.”
Parsons, 25, became eligible for an extension after the 2023 season, and he now is in the final year of his contract scheduled to make $24 million on the fifth-year option.
