Brian Schottenheimer Handed Positive Offseason Update as Cowboys Propose Meaningful Contract to Micah Parsons

Physical. Tough. Speed. If any NFL player tops these requirements, he is Brian Schottenheimer’s favorite. Because that’s what the Dallas Cowboys’s new head coach prioritizes. And what if a previously injured player, who is in rehab, possesses these qualities? Ah, that would definitely be the cherry on the cake for Schottenheimer, isn’t it?

So, here’s the positive offseason update for Brian Schottenheimer: Trevon Diggs is working hard to be back for the 2025 season. Last season, the CB had a rough time, as he suffered multiple injuries. However, when he tore his ACL on the same left knee (which also happened in 2023), Diggs had to exit the season. But the good thing is – he is back for some drills!

According to writer Brandon Loree on X, “#Cowboys Trevon Diggs going through his first week of weight bearing activities to regain balance and coordination.” In the shared videos, Diggs could be seen working out in full concentration, determined to be ready for the camp. So, yes, it’s true that, as Loree mentioned it correctly – “@TrevonDiggs is making progress (flexing biceps emoji).”

Last Saturday, Dr. Sharif Tabbah, the trainer at Alkemespottsrx, dropped this big news. He updated about Brian Schottenheimer’s CB’s performance in rehab. He wrote, “Big first day weight bearing vibes,” as the doctor revealed that Trevon Diggs is recovering well in his rehab. This shows Diggs is indeed the toughest. Despite dealing with multiple injuries, including season-ending traumas, he played 11 games last year. And the stats? Well, he recorded 35 tackles, 7 assists, and 32 solo.

And now, Diggs is trying hard to regain his speed. The speed and agility, which we have seen in his 40-yard dash time of 4.42 seconds. So, yeah, as he is back, it’s surely positive news for coach Brian Schottenheimer, who is also reportedly thinking of bringing his brother, Stefon Diggs in the team.

Surprisingly, Stefon Diggs, who was traded to the Texans from Buffalo, too faced a tear in ACL last season. The wide receiver is a free agent now, who is also recovering well like his younger brother Trevon. Bringing him in the team, Brian Schottenheimer will have two brothers showing up their potential after their season-ending injuries. But here the problem is, if the Cowboys’s interest in Stefon picks up, they might step back if the bidding war gets too intense. And that would definitely be a tough blow for fans hoping to see the Diggs brothers play together.

But again, that’s another matter of debate to talk upon. Until then, head coach Brian Schottenheimer will be happy to know Trevon Diggs’s physicality, toughness and speed – all coming back in! On the other hand, the HC as well as the franchise is planning something meaningful, something big, for their linebacker Micah Parsons.

Brian Schottenheimer and the Cowboys are ready to sign Micah Parsons?

For a few weeks, the talks are going on regarding Micah Parsons’s awaiting contract extension. The linebacker is heading into the final season of his five-year rookie contract. He is now scheduled to make about $24.007 million in 2025. But since he has shown his worth in the team, especially by becoming the fifth player to put up double-digits sacks on the board in every season, he deserves big! That’s the reason why Jerry Jones, whom Parsons called, “My Dawg,” and Brian Schottenheimer are taking up their chances on him again.

According to the reports, “contract proposals have been discussed” between the owners and LB Micah Parsons. And as per the news, it’s speculated that Brian Schottenheimer’s Cowboys are handing Parsons “Cowboys for Life” deal, via CowboysCountry.com. This will perhaps make him the highest-paid non-QB in NFL history. So, how much is he about to earn?

Well, the reports hint that it would be around $200 million for another five years. This means, the 25-year-old could be getting $40 million annually.
