Micah Parsons was harshly criticized by Skip Bayless, who believes the Dallas Cowboys are doing the right thing by holding off on a long-term contract.

Micah is entering the fifth-year option on his rookie deal, paying him $24 million (“An easy $20 million sitting at practice…” as Jerry Jones has said), but his contract-related hold in is continuing to nag at the Cowboys faithful pleading for something to change.

The Micah Parsons contract saga may be reaching a critical impasse as the 2025 NFL season nears. The All-Pro edge rusher and the Dallas Cowboys remain deadlocked in extension talks with little progress in recent months.
