The Packers traded for Cowboys star pass rusher Micah Parsons on Thursday, and Parsons immediately received a four-year, $188 million contract that will pay him an average of $47 million annually—the largest contract for a non-quarterback in NFL history.
Parsons's future was very much up in the air in Dallas while he was seeking a contract extension with the franchise. When the two sides didn't come to an agreement, Parsons requested a trade. Cowboys owner Jerry Jones pulled the trigger Thursday—28 days after the request.
