Ruthless Jerry Jones Gives 6 Reasons To Justify Micah Parsons’ Removal Amid Cowboys Locker Room Conflict

Hours after shocking the NFL with one of the most debated trades, Jerry Jones is still standing by his decision. The Dallas Cowboys sent Micah Parsons—a four-time Pro Bowl pass rusher and the heartbeat of their defense—to the Green Bay Packers in a blockbuster deal in exchange for Kenny Clark and two first-round draft picks. And Jones didn’t shy away from the weight of the move.

Contract extension talks with Parsons had stalled, creating a rift that reached a breaking point. So instead of bending, Jones doubled down. Speaking on Good Morning America, Jones revealed his calculation: six players could potentially come out of the future draft picks acquired for Parsons. That, to him, was the justification. “That’s a good trade when you need numbers. I’ll take the numbers every time.” He for sure is comparing this move to the Herschel Walker trade that fueled Dallas’ dynasty more than 35 years ago, calling it a future-shaping moment for the franchise.
