On Friday, the star of the Dallas Cowboys, Micah Parsons, shook the NFL world requesting an exchange.
On Saturday he gave the owner of Dallas, Jerry Jones, the opportunity to respond, and the advantage of the moment.
Talking to the media at the Cowboys training camp, Jones made it clear that he does not want Dallas fans to “lose sleep” for the situation of the contract, and that he does not want to exchange Parsons, there is also the simple fact that “life continues.”
“I would be standing here if I thought we had a great future with Micah. We are in good shape,” said Jones, as cited by Jon Machota or The Atlético. “This is a negotiation. But they are not mistaken about it, life has to continue if something happens to me or someone else. Life continues.”
Jones also indicated that he believes that this is simply part of the “negotiation” process:
The owner of the Cowboys, Jerry Jones, says that the commercial application of Micah Parsons does not bother him. He considers it the same as contractual negotiations with other main players. “We are in good shape. This is a negotiation.”

“I think Micah’s world is just the part of the negotiation. I really don’t put it with any seriousness.”
Parson requested an exchange on Friday, pointing to a statement in social networks that until “today the team has not had a single conversation with my agent about a contract”:
Jones backed that when heading to the media on Saturday, declaring that the sacrifice of the Cool Parson team in spring was out of the table by the passes corridor itself:
Is the sacrifice of the March contract to Micah Parsons still on the table?
Jerry Jones: “Micah Toke It Off”.

As for whether the relationship between Jones and Parsons is “wild,” said Jones, “I think the relationship is what it is.
“I like Micah.”
As we pointed out yesterday, when the voice was leaked that Parsons was consulting “drastic measures”, this could really be part of the song and the dance between the player and the team. Jones seems to believe that he himself, thinking that an agreement will be made.
Some there are also a more cynical hero, including one of the best sports journalists on the planet who is working on a book on Jones, which is also part of what the owner enjoys in the summer:
Jerry Jones does not mind paying a few additional million in a mega contract if he and cowboys can generate $ 100+ million in free advertising by dominating the NFL conversation in July and August.
This is Jerry’s pre -season soap opera play book. Rinse, repeat.

Yes, even if the attention you receive is negative.
At least, it gives us something to talk about until the games really start.
