Micah Parsons Trade Demand Disrupts Cowboys Camp

Dallas Cowboys star defender Micah Parsons has publicly requested a trade after contract negotiations broke down, expressing frustration with the team's handling of talks and exclusion of his agent. Parsons has stated he no longer wants to play for the Cowboys, but the organization retains contractual control and plans to use the franchise tag if needed, with front office officials maintaining a calm and noncommittal public stance. The trade request has become a major distraction during training camp, fueling speculation about possible destinations including the Arizona Cardinals, who are reportedly considering pursuing Parsons. In response to multiple injuries, the Cowboys have re-signed veteran offensive lineman La'el Collins to reinforce leadership and maintain continuity. Collins' return is viewed as a stabilizing move for the team during a turbulent period. The situation has sparked debate among fans and analysts about the Cowboys' management and future direction.
