In a trade heard 'round the world, the Cowboys dealt two-time All-Pro pass rusher Micah Parsons to the Packers in exchange for Pro Bowl defensive tackle Kenny Clark and two first-round picks before Week 1 of the 2025 season.
But Cowboys owner, president and general manager Jerry Jones had his sights on a different team—and player—as the highlight of a trade return for Parsons before ultimately agreeing to a deal with Green Bay. Jones, appearing on ESPN New York radio with Gary Myers ahead of the Cowboys-Giants showdown on Sunday, said he had contacted the Jets about a potential Parsons deal—and wanted former All-Pro defensive tackle Quinnen Williams in return.
