The ongoing contract dispute between Micah Parsons and the Dallas Cowboys has reached a boiling point, and team owner Jerry Jones does not seem confident that it will be resolved before the start of the regular season.
Jones was asked at training camp on Tuesday if he is confident that Parsons will be on the field when the Cowboys travel to Philadelphia to face the Eagles for their season opener on Sept. 4. As he often does, the 82-year-old gave a blunt response.
“No, absolutely not. A big part of that is his decision,” Jones said. “How would I know that? I’m just saying. But I’m urgent.”
