The 72-year-old said Micah is a valuable asset and that they are still trying to put all the pieces of the puzzle together. However, towards the end of his statement, Jones accidentally called Parsons "Michael."

"Micah's a great player, not a good player," Jones said. "But a great player. He knows more than anyone that it is a team thing, and so I know everybody's tired of hearing this, but you've got to put this puzzle together so that you can have some other people out there playing with Michael. That's the art of the deal, and that's why we're trying to make this thing work."

NFL insider calls out Jerry Jones & Co. for creating a mess out of Micah Parsons' contract situation

It seems like everyone has had enough of the drama between Micah Parsons and the Cowboys. NFL insider Louis Reddick blasted Jerry Jones & Co., stating that the situation is just getting worse with each passing day.

"Micah has checked every box in that way, every single box, impact player, impact position, impact statistics, timely," Reddick said on Get Up's Wednesday episode. "He's done everything exactly the way you want. It wasn't because the guy got arrested, he failed a drug test or he's locker room cancer. Or he's been injured or he's a guy who hasn't produced.

“He's producing at a Hall of Fame rate, a young player that you drafted. These are the easiest contracts in the world. Everything that's happening with Dallas right now is self-inflicted. It's self caused. …To me, that's flat out embarrassing.”

It will be interesting to see if Micah Parsons will sign a new deal with Jerry Jones' team or find a new home in the NFL.
