Cowboys Owner Jerry Jones Had ‘Problem’ With Micah Parsons Ahead of SNF Clash

Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones is still adjusting to the sight of Micah Parsons in a Green Bay Packers uniform.
Jones was live on NBC on Sunday when Parsons jogged onto the field at AT&T Stadium for warmups, making his first return to Dallas since being traded — and his first appearance as a visitor at the stadium he once called home.
“I’ve seen that trot and him running out like that for four straight years. The green and gold is a little problem for me, looking at it,” Jones said. “But I’ll have to think of the kind of considerations we got on the trade. It might not be this Christmas that the bicycle goes under the tree. But thinking ahead, you might have a motorcycle under there.”
Jones’ message seems to be that by avoiding a massive contract for Parsons, the Cowboys are keeping financial flexibility to add multiple impact players in the future. After the trade, Parsons inked a four-year, $188 million extension with Green Bay, making him the highest-paid non-quarterback in NFL history.
Dallas has already invested heavily in other key pieces since trading Parsons, extending guard Tyler Smith — now the NFL’s highest-paid interior offensive lineman — and signing cornerback DaRon Bland to a four-year deal worth up to $92 million. Tight end Jake Ferguson signed a four-year extension worth up to $52 million.
