Dallas Cowboys Wanted Former Alabama All-American for Micah Parsons

Dallas Cowboys sought defensive tackle Quinnen Williams and first-round picks in exchange for Micah Parsons but the New York Jets declined due to contract and resource constraints.

  • On Aug. 28, the Dallas Cowboys traded Micah Parsons to the Green Bay Packers for Pro Bowl defensive tackle Kenny Clark and two first-round draft picks, just before the 2025 season.
  • After Parsons' contract talks stalled, Jones said `A prerequisite to the entire trade was that we had to have right now a really, frankly significant dominant inside defensive player`, prompting Dallas to pursue interior help.
  • Jerry Jones acknowledged he reached out to the New York Jets about Parsons, seeking Quinnen Williams and a first-round pick, but said `Just frankly, didn't have the resources to entertain conversation`.
  • On the field and in the stands, Micah Parsons made an immediate impact for Green Bay, recording four quarterback hits and 1.5 sacks while Packers fans rallied at Lambeau Field.
  • Because the Jets stood pat, Quinnen Williams remains with New York Jets, and Jerry Jones will see Williams up close when the Jets host the Cowboys on Oct. 5.
