Dallas Cowboys star defensive end Micah Parsons requested a trade on Friday afternoon, announcing his decision on X. The detailed post concluded with, “Still I stayed quiet but again after repeated shots at myself and all the narratives, I have made a tough decision I no longer want to play for the Dallas Cowboys. My trade request has been submitted to Stephen Jones personally.”The request comes as contract extension discussions have stalled between Dallas ownership and Parsons. Parsons has recorded 52.5 sacks in his first four seasons, trailing only Reggie White (70), Derrick Thomas (58), J.J. Watt (57) and DeMarcus Ware (53.5) since sacks became an official stat in 1982. He is entering the final year of his rookie deal. A Harrisburg native, Parsons had his high school jersey retired last month at Severance Stadium, following his youth football camp.
