NFL Trade Rumors
ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports the Eagles “made a strong play this summer” to trade for former Cowboys DE Micah Parsons.
Schefter adds the Cowboys had no interest in trading Parsons in the division, and especially to the defending champs.
The Panthers also inquired about Parsons, but they were hesitant to add DT Derrick Brown to the deal.
Parsons, 26, was the former No. 12 overall pick by the Cowboys in the 2021 NFL Draft out of Penn State. He played out the final year of a four-year, $17,079,792 rookie contract that included a $9,781,667 signing bonus.
Dallas exercised the fifth-year option for Parsons, and he’s slated to make $21.32 million guaranteed in 2025.
The Cowboys traded Parsons to the Packers for DT Kenny Clark and two first-round picks before the 2025 season. Green Bay instantly handed Parsons a four-year, $186 million extension, keeping him under team control through 2029.
In 2024, Parsons appeared in 13 games for the Cowboys and recorded 43 total tackles, 12 tackles for loss, 12 sacks, two forced fumbles, and one pass deflection.
