Dallas Cowboys edge rusher Micah Parsons added a touch of pressure to his ongoing contract negotiations on Tuesday, explaining to reporters why it's "extremely important" he has a deal ironed out by training camp.
"You really see a lot of players struggle when guys aren't participating in camp and they get off to a slow start," Parsons elaborated, per Jon Machota of The Athletic. "I don't want to get off to a slow start. I want to hit the ground running, establish ourselves in this league, get some wins early in the season and be in rhythm. It's extremely important for me to get going and lead these guys."
