Cowboys Trade Micah Parsons to Packers for Multiple First-Round Picks, Kenny Clark

The Dallas Cowboys traded star edge rusher Micah Parsons to the Green Bay Packers in a deal that includes Kenny Clark and first-round draft picks in 2026 and 2027. Parsons signed a four-year, $188 million contract with $120 million guaranteed, making him the highest-paid non-quarterback in NFL history. While some critics, including former NFL GM Mike Tannenbaum, argue Dallas received far less value than Parsons' worth and view the trade as a strategic mistake, others compare the deal to the historic 1989 Herschel Walker trade, suggesting it could pay dividends for Dallas in the long run. Despite the controversy, the Cowboys' Super Bowl odds remain roughly the same as before the trade. Additionally, the Cowboys made a surprising roster move by waiving second-year wide receiver Ryan Flournoy shortly after finalizing their 53-man roster. This trade and roster shakeup mark a significant change for Dallas as they prepare for the upcoming NFL season.
