Dallas Cowboys owner and general manager Jerry Jones pointed out pass-rusher Micah Parsons missing time last season when addressing the star linebacker’s ongoing contract negotiations.
“Just because we sign (Parsons) doesn’t mean we’re going to have him,” Jones told reporters Monday. “He was hurt six games last year. Seriously.”
Parsons sat out only four games last season due to injury, not the six Jones mentioned. The Cowboys’ owner later referenced quarterback Dak Prescott’s 2024 hamstring issue as another example of the potential risk of giving players lucrative contracts.
