The Dallas Cowboys are focusing on a contract extension for Micah Parsons, who is entering the final year of his rookie deal. Parsons aims to finalize a deal early in the offseason for better salary cap clarity, although this hasn't occurred yet. The evolving market for top NFL defenders, with recent contracts surpassing $40 million annually, significantly impacts Parsons' potential earnings. While he has indicated that he doesn't need to be the highest-paid player, the likelihood of his deal exceeding $40 million has become more plausible as the negotiations continue.
Parsons has publicly stated that he would like to get an agreement done early in the offseason in order to give the Cowboys more salary cap clarity moving forward.
The highest-paid defender in the NFL has changed twice in the last month, highlighting the evolving market scenario that affects Parsons’ potential contract.
If it comes in south of $40 million per year - expect the guaranteed money on Parsons' deal to reflect the growing market for top defenders.
Parsons stated in December that he doesn't need to be the highest-paid, but a price tag of exactly $40 million makes a lot more sense today.
