Micah Parsons Will Become Highest-Paid Non-QB

2 weeks ago

CBS Sports' Jonathan Jones says that Dallas Cowboys All-Pro pass-rusher Micah Parsons will eventually become the highest-paid non-quarterback in NFL history after Pittsburgh Steelers pass-rusher T.J. Watt earned those honors for the second time in his career after agreeing to a three-year, $123 million contract extension on Thursday. As things stand now, Parsons is currently scheduled to play the 2025 season on his $24 million fifth-year option. However, all indications are that the Cowboys and Parsons will agree on a new long-term extension before the start of the regular season, which will likely pay him at least $41.5 million per season. The 26-year-old participated in the team's offseason program and should be on the field during training camp this month, regardless of whether an extension has been reached.
