Cowboys linebacker Micah Parsons is in a contract dispute with the team. Parsons' fifth-year option salary is listed at $21.324 million by the Cowboys and NFL, but Parsons believes it should be $24 million, reflecting his linebacker position rather than their designation of defensive end. The discrepancy stems from the Collective Bargaining Agreement's calculation based on playing position during his third year. A grievance has been filed, hinging on a play-by-play review of his position. This disagreement adds to the existing tension between Parsons and the Cowboys as his rookie contract nears its end.
