Micah Parsons' 'divorce' from Cowboys coming 'in time' amid contract standoff, NFL insider says
Micah Parsons requested a trade from the Dallas Cowboys after grueling negotiations for a contract extension. Chris Broussard, Kevin Wildes and Eric Mangini ask if this is the right decision by Parsons.
Micah Parsons shared his wish to be traded from the Dallas Cowboys earlier this offseason, and speculation has since swirled, with many debating whether owner Jerry Jones will act amid the contract dispute.
ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter believes that a "divorce" is coming at some point.
"I see these two sides headed toward divorce in time," the veteran insider said on the latest episode of his "The Adam Schefter Podcast."

Parsons has been at the Cowboys’ training camp facility in Oxnard, California, but he has been watching practices from the sideline. And though he’s been spotted next to Jones, the team owner and general manager, talks between the star edge rusher’s representatives and the Cowboys’ front office have not progressed at all.
"You can’t get a deal done if you’re not even talking," Schefter said. "And the two sides haven’t had any negotiations since last March or early April. It sounds like, at this point, it’s personal. It sounds like each side is dug in. The Cowboys have come out and said what they said publicly at the start of training camp, which Micah didn’t like. Micah came out and asked to be traded, said he was ready to move on from Dallas, which I’m sure they didn’t like. Right now, both sides seem to be angry.
