The Dallas Cowboys’ 2025 offseason has been a unique one. Dallas made a few big-time trades, acquiring New England Patriots backup quarterback Joe Milton and Pittsburgh Steelers receiver George Pickens.
The Cowboys have done everything they can to ensure the offense will be much better this season, but the team hasn’t figured out the most significant question mark on defense.
Dallas’ pass rusher, Micah Parsons, is one of the best players in the NFL but has yet to agree to any new long-term deal.
Parsons is entering the final year of his contract, and it’s never good not to have a star player locked up for the long term.
The Cowboys still have time to extend Parsons, and Kristopher Knox from Bleacher Report thinks the team should give Parsons a new deal before the offseason ends.

“Dallas must also work out a new long-term deal with pass-rusher Micah Parsons. The four-time Pro Bowler is entering a contract year, deserves a new deal, and could potentially hold out during camp without one,” Knox wrote. “He attended mandatory minicamp but did not practice. With $32.5 million in cap space, the Cowboys should get the ball rolling on a deal to make Parsons the league’s highest-paid defender. Otherwise, they could try to fetch a massive return by placing him on the trade market.”
Parsons is the heart and soul of the defense, and if the Cowboys can’t work out a new deal with him, then it could be his last season in Dallas, which won’t be suitable for the team moving forward.
