Despite on-going negotiations with the Dallas Cowboys, micheas Parsons' comprehension in the Cowboys' 53-man squad proclaimed on tues gave fans fresh hopes. Now, details on what has led to the stalemate between Parsons and the Cowboys are coming out.
According to a report by Pro Football Talk, the dispute between Micah Parsons and the Cowboys centered around the Cowboys' 2021 draft pick's salary. The negotiations are reportedly being led by owner Jerry Jones on the Cowboys' side.
So, exactly what's wrong? As per a report by USA Today, there is a dispute between Parsons and the Cowboys over the linebacker's fifth-year salary. The report, which cites an anonymous source familiar with the matter, revealed that Parson's camp believes his salary should be $24 million, while the Cowboys' calculation shows it as $21.324 million.
The difference in both sides' calculations reportedly stemmed from a listing issue on the Dallas roster. Parsons is listed as a defensive end by the Cowboys, which pays $21.324 million, as opposed to a running back, who earns $24 million.
Parsons missed the entire preseason for the Cowboys and did not wear the Cowboys jersey while on the sidelines for the NFL Preseason game against the Atlanta Falcons in Atlanta.
