Dallas Cowboys All-Pro edge rusher Micah Parsons is not being traded, a sentiment shared directly by franchise owner Jerry Jones.

Making his weekly appearance on 105.3 The Fan, Jones was adamant Parsons remains part of Cowboys’ foundation into the future.

Jones said any idea of trading the two-time first-team All-Pro has “never been uttered in this organization.”

Jones’ comment was in response to the NFL Network report claiming the Cowboys hadn’t ruled out trading Parsons before his contract must be addressed. Dallas hold a team option worth $24 million for 2025 before Parsons could become an unrestricted free agent in 2026.

Parsons was asked about that very notion after Dallas’ 30-14 victory over the Carolina Panthers on Sunday.

“I understand how that business side goes,” Parsons said, per The Athletic. “There are no hard feelings in this business, whether I’m here or anywhere else. Obviously I’ve stated that I want to be here. But at the end of the day, I understand the business side.”

Parsons did not participate in offseason workouts with Dallas last spring. But he said he still wants to play for the Cowboys.

“I’ve put in a lot of work, I’ve played hard too, so obviously if sides can’t agree to those type of things, it happens like that. But I’m just happy to be here. I’m just gonna keep playing hard while I’m here. If I’m here for the next 5-6 years, I’m gonna keep playing hard then too. Ain’t nothing really gonna make a difference, Micah is gonna play hard.”

Parsons, 25, has recorded 32 tackles, 8.5 sacks and a forced fumble in 10 games (all starts) this season.

A three-time Pro Bowl selection in his first three seasons in the league, Parsons has totaled 245 tackles, 49 sacks, eight forced fumbles and four fumble recoveries in 60 career games (all starts).
