Micah Parsons claims he's 'going to be a Cowboy' following Prescott, Lamb extensions

Two of the Dallas Cowboys' three biggest stars received lucrative contract extensions over the last few weeks, but the third star in that trio isn't feeling left out while watching Dak Prescott and CeeDee Lamb secure their new deals.

Micah Parsons believes his day to sign a lucrative extension will come and is not concerned about his future in Dallas

"I know I'm going to be a Cowboy," the Cowboys linebacker said on the most recent episode of his podcast, "The Edge with Micah Parsons." 

"There's nothing like Cowboy Nation. I think the love is very mutual. … As for me, I'm just focused on winning games. I want to win those big games. I want to win those playoff games, get to the Super Bowl. For me, the contract is not really what I'm worried about."

Parsons sought a new deal when he became extension-eligible over the offseason, but it's unclear just how far into contract negotiations he and the Cowboys got before the season began. Cowboys owner Jerry Jones insinuated that Parsons was asking for a deal that would've made him the highest-paid non-quarterback in the NFL in August. 

However, Cowboys executive vice president Stephen Jones later implied Parsons wasn't seeking an extension at all this offseason. 

"Right now, it's certainly not anything that's on the table," Stephen Jones told a Dallas sports radio station. "Micah made a conscientious decision that he thinks he can put together an even better year. I think he got off to a great start yesterday against the Browns. I think his play speaks louder than words. 

"I think he expects to have a great year under [new Cowboys defensive coordinator Mike Zimmer]. And then probably feel comfortable to talk about it then. Each individual is different. Opportunities come and when
