NextImg:Cowboys turned down the ‘biggest offer’ from Eagles for Micah Parsons

Jerry Jones preferred to trade Micah Parsons out of the NFC entirely, but the Cowboys owner definitely didn’t want to deal his All-Pro edge rusher within Dallas’ division.

Before Parsons was moved to the Packers late last month, the NFC East rival Eagles also made a “strong” offer, which included two first-round picks and other draft capital, according to FOX Sports’ Jay Glazer.

The 26-year-old Parsons went to Green Bay in a blockbuster deal for two first-round picks and defensive tackle Kenny Clark on Aug. 28. He then signed a four-year contract extension worth $186 million.

“The team that actually threw in the biggest offer was the Philadelphia Eagles,” Glazer said Sunday during Fox’s pregame show. “For two ones, a three, a five, amongst other things.

“Obviously didn’t want to trade him in the division. But the Green Bay Packers, they chimed in early, they kept with it, and Kenny Clark is what made the difference for Dallas.”

Jones preferred to trade Parsons, a training camp holdout, to the AFC, Glazer added, but the Cowboys couldn’t find a commensurate package to the one they received from Green Bay.

The Cowboys opened the 2025 season with a 24-20 loss to the Eagles — the defending Super Bowl champions — on Thursday night in Philadelphia.

Parsons is slated to make his Packers debut Sunday against the Lions.
