Palm Beach, Florida. – The owner and general manager of the Dallas Cowboys, Jerry Jones, does not believe that an agreement between the club and the Micah Parsons star passes corridor is very far away.
Jones said that Parsons called him from Abu Dhabi to organize a meeting and in the last two weeks, the owner and the professional bowling player gathered for “five or six hours”, in the office of the owner in the star of Frisco, Texas, to resolve a long -term extension.
“Most of the problems we agree with. We discuss everything,” Jones said Tuesday during a break at the NFL annual meeting at the Breakers Resort. “But obviously we have no agreement in relation to the new contract.”
Jones mentioned the duration of the agreement, the guaranteed money and the general money is resolved.
So why is there no treatment yet?
The finest details that remain to the executive vice president of the Cowboys, Stephen Jones, and the Parsons agent, David Mulugheta.
Those could take time; However, Jerry Jones said that the discussions are much more advanced at this time than the organization spent the last season with the open receiver Ceedee Lamb, who lost the low season program and most of the training field before signing a four -year agreement and $ 136 million in August.
“It is I who has to sign the check and Micah is the one who agrees,” Jones said. “That is the most direct way to get there, it is the one who writes the check and the one who agrees to speak.”
The Jones have had direct conversations with players with respect to contracts, such as those with Deion Sanders, Emmitt Smith, Jason Witten and Tony Romo. The agents frustrated by practice, but Jerry Jones does not believe it is a big problem.
“Are you joking? That is not something you should worry about,” said Jerry Jones. “You should worry about your ability to work and you should worry about what the player does. Does it have enough health?
Parsons turned to social networks to defend Mulugheta, publishing: “I will not make any treatment without @davidmulugheta involved! Like anyone in good sense, I hired experts for a reason.
Jones does not see to make an agreement as “urgent”, coming to say that it is “absolutely not essential to have an agreement with Micah in terms of structuring our salary limit for next year or two.”
Parsons is ready to play with the fifth year option of his rookie contract, and the cowboys could use the franchise label in 2026.
In the last month, Las Vegas Raiders signed Maxx Crosby with an extension of three years and $ 106.5 million and the Cleveland Browns made Myles Garrett the best paid defensive player with an extension of four years worth $ 40 million per year. The open receiver of the Cincinnati Bengals, Ja’mar Chase, became a quarter of the best paid at $ 40.25 million per year.
“What I do is what I have left and what fits the circumstances behind what I am doing,” said Jones.
The earlier Tuesday, coach Brian Schottenheimer said that Parsons hopes to be a participant in the Voluntary Program of the Baja Season, which begins on Monday.
In the last two years, Parsons has not been a frequent assistant, working mainly only in the early conditioning work and the organized activities of the team. He has been in the JUNE MINICAMPAMENTE.
“Hey, look, at the end of the day, this is a business, and when you are dealing with the money that is being launched, not only with Micah but with the renowned players, the negotiations sometimes have been,” said Schottenheimer. “I feel very comfortable. Micah said he will be close. I think he wants to be. I think we are all very comfortable with that. And at the end of the day he is a great player and we believe he is starting, to be honest with you. I have no doubt in my mind that will be close.”
An extension would almost guarantee the participation of Parsons, especially because the cowboys put salary rescuers in contracts for players who lose a certain percentage of training.
The cowboys have been criticized for waiting too much to make deals, such as Dak Prescott and Lamb last year, but Jones does not believe that the process has cost the cowboys the opportunity to sign other players.
“I have never had anything that I would like I could never get.” Jones said. “I’ll find a path.”
