Sources: Dallas appears open to Parsons offers
Briefly

Multiple NFL teams have contacted the Dallas Cowboys about acquiring Micah Parsons, and the Cowboys are now willing to listen to trade proposals. No deal is imminent, but a quick trade remains possible if another team becomes aggressive. The Cowboys want resolution before the season opener against the Philadelphia Eagles and will hold a full practice on Friday. Jerry Jones said the team would not trade Parsons and believes there was an agreed five-year extension averaging $40.5 million per season; no new offers have been made. Possible outcomes include Parsons playing on his current contract, reaching a long-term deal, continuing to sit out with a back issue, or being traded.
Several teams have spoken to the Dallas Cowboys about a potential Micah Parsons' trade and for the first time the Cowboys appear willing to at least listen, according to multiple sources. No trade is imminent, but another team always could be aggressive enough to make it come together quickly, per sources. The Cowboys would like to resolve the situation, one way or another, in the coming days with their season opener next Thursday against the Philadelphia Eagles. The Cowboys hold their first full practice in preparation for the Eagles on Friday.
When Parsons issued his trade request on Aug. 1, Cowboys owner and general manager Jerry Jones said the team would not trade him. Jones believes the Cowboys had an agreement with Parsons on a five-year extension that averaged $40.5 million per season, per league sources. The Cowboys have not made any offers since. But the Cowboys would like clarity to this drama soon, however that comes. Or Parsons could be traded, which sources believe seems to have become a stronger possibility in recent days than it has been at any point during this process.
