Wed Apr 02 12:10:00 UTC 2025: ## Cowboys Offer Micah Parsons Record-Breaking Deal, But Agent’s Approval Needed
**ARLINGTON, TX** – The Dallas Cowboys have made a stunning offer to star linebacker Micah Parsons, aiming to make him the highest-paid non-quarterback in NFL history. According to Clarence Hill of All City DLLS, the team and owner Jerry Jones have reached a tentative agreement surpassing the current record held by Bengals receiver Ja’Marr Chase. However, a significant hurdle remains: Parsons’ agent, David Mulugheta, has not been involved in negotiations and his approval is required before the deal can be finalized.
The reported offer would eclipse the annual average of $40.25 million earned by Chase, and the $40 million annual average of Browns defensive end Myles Garrett. While Cowboys executive vice president Stephen Jones defended the team’s practice of engaging directly with players – citing past examples with Tony Romo, DeMarcus Lawrence, Jason Witten, and Zack Martin – Mulugheta and the Cowboys haven’t spoken since the NFL Scouting Combine, leaving the future of the record-breaking contract in doubt. Jones stated that while the team maintains open communication with agents, Parsons prefers to handle contract negotiations directly. The situation now hinges on whether Mulugheta will approve the Cowboys’ unprecedented offer.
