Micah Parsons could pursue short-term dealJune 27, 2025 | 09:45 PM

Dallas Cowboys pass rusher Micah Parsons could pursue a shorter deal in order to re-enter the market sooner, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero. Writer's Analysis: According to Pelissero, the league is "trending toward shorter-term deals [and] higher percentages guaranteed," which could impact Parsons' next contract. While he expressed optimism that Dallas and Parsons will come to terms on a deal, with the per-year value likely already established between the two parties, the impasse could be the contract length, with Jerry Jones and the Cowboys historically preferring long-term extensions. For now, Parsons remains in negotiations on an extension but plans to attend offseason workouts.
