The Dallas Cowboys and Micah Parsons have been working on an extension for over a year at this point. Parsons expected a deal last season, and then everyone just expected it to get done before camp.
Here we are now a full week plus into camp and reports from Dianna Russini are that the two sides are not only far apart, but frustration is mounting on Parsons camp and a trade demand could be coming.

The 2021 No. 12 draft pick has been one of the most pleasant surprises as he transitioned from linebacker to defensive end and has become one of the most disruptive defensive players in the league.
With the recent Myles Garrett extension of 4 years, $120.4 million, the expectation is an extension to be in that ballpark. If Jerry Jones is foolish enough to let Parsons line up a trade, teams would be lining up to give away picks for the All-Pro talent.
