FRISCO, Texas -- The Dallas Cowboys traded four-time Pro Bowl edge rusher Micah Parsons to the Green Bay Packers on Thursday.
In exchange, the Cowboys received three-time Pro Bowl defensive tackle Kenny Clark and two first-round draft picks (2026 and 2027).
Parsons agreed to a four-year, $188 million contract with the Packers that includes $120 million fully guaranteed at signing and $136 million in total guarantees, making him the highest-paid non-quarterback in NFL history, sources told ESPN.
Parsons released a statement on social media Thursday, saying in part, "I never wanted this chapter to end, but not everything was in my control. My heart has always been here, and it still is. Through it all, I never made any demands. I never asked for anything more than fairness. I only asked that the person I trust to negotiate my contract be part of the process."

Earlier Thursday, ESPN reported that the Cowboys were willing to listen to trade offers for Parsons, and talks escalated quickly.
In a 46-minute news conference later Thursday, Cowboys owner and general manager Jerry Jones said that he ultimately made the trade to help the team win now.

PACKERS PING!.....................
Will the end zone messages say:
“ End Racism,” “Stop Hate,” “Choose Love” or “Inspire Change””
Then I ain’t watching
Yes, they are keeping the End Zone messages. Apparently they are going to be permanent..............
Peckers looking to solve the Loins conundrum?
Good riddance. The man had a signed contract and should have just kept his mouth shut and played it out. To me, none of them are worth spit if they cannot keep their word. So now, GB will reap the benefits until he gets unhappy again. If I were his Cowboy teammates, I would have wondered how they were going to pay him more than his contract and pay them as well. OF course, consideration of team doesn’t count anymore.

Will he be booed or applauded?
Why don’t leftists get all upset and envious over high-paid athletes like they do with corporate CEO compensation packages?
Usually, because the athletes are “of color.”
Yes. The assclowns have said they will. Fookin’ idjits!
Booed......................
Undoable. He takes too big a percentage of the salary cap. What could go wrong: 1) injury, 2) they quit playing hard now that they got the guaranteed money, and 3) DUI/bar fights/wife beating.
Those investments are too big a gamble. Teams have 3 years where they ‘own’ their services. The big money has room for five or 6 players per team, creating haves and have nots.
The big elephant-It’s blacks doing their own thing and not caring what anyone thinks. Gotta hand it to Michah. He cashed in and took advantage. The owners would do no less. Perhaps we should all be proud of the blacks for showing the way. Turnoffs-Dak Prescott is undeserving. Deshaun Watson? Blame the stupid owner. Their egos make them do this.
Micah is 26.
It’s all downhill from here.............
He's not only a rusher, he also sings?
That’s a lot of money in one basket. If the Jets had him, they would be carting him off the field with a destroyed knee by week 2. Good luck GB...
Rap.....................
Every time one of these huge contracts come around it seems like it will bury the team under the salary cap. But, it never seems to slow down the good teams.
Jerry has gone senile.
His doofus son isn’t far behind.................
I didn’t even know he could sing
Meh. I’m tired of second-guessing Da Pack and their player shuffles. We need more receivers. Always. Love is looking good right out of the shoot, so there’s that.
Just play ball. ENTERTAIN me! ;)
P.S. The End Zone message should ALWAYS read: ‘The Bears Still Suck!’ :)
