NFL Fans Not Happy With Jerry Jones’ New Micah Parsons Comment originally appeared on Athlon Sports. It’s been a few weeks since All-Pro defender Micah Parsons requested a trade from the Dallas Cowboys, who drafted him 12th overall in 2021.

Jones, who held out ahead of the Chiefs’ 2023 season, probably knows better than most what the Cowboys’ present situation is like.

The Cowboys open the season in 22 days with a Thursday night game in Philadelphia. Because Parsons is in the fifth year of his rookie contract, Jones expects the star pass rusher to be on the field. “You don’t have deadlines when you’re playing under a contract,” Jones said.
