On Friday, Micah Parsons demanded a trade from the Dallas Cowboys.
Even with months of Parsons's public discontentment simmering due to his desire for a contract extension, it is shocking to see the Cowboys let the situation get to this point. Parsons is one of the best defensive players in football, hard stop. He's accumulated 52.5 sacks in his first four NFL seasons and earned two first-team All-Pro nods. It's no exaggeration to say Parsons is on track for a Hall of Fame-caliber career. But the Cowboys played hardball with his contract negotiations and now have to decide whether they'll actually trade their 26-year-old superstar.
