Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones has not spoken with Micah Parsons since the star linebacker issued his trade request, Jones told reporters Tuesday. When asked when the situation becomes urgent, he said, “I stay urgent.”
Parsons has been with the Cowboys since going public with his trade request Friday, but still is not practicing. He is seeking a long-term deal that would likely make him the highest-paid non-quarterback, though no deal has come together. Meanwhile, the pass-rush market has shifted multiple times.
Jones said he has talked with Parsons’ representatives, but not the Pro Bowl linebacker himself since the request. In the meantime, the former Penn State star is still searching for a fresh contract.

Parsons and the Cowboys held talks about a new contract in the spring, but nothing came together as the offseason program rolled along and training camp approached. Things went to a new level last week when Parsons went public with his request to be traded.
