Should there be stipulations in Micah Parsons contract?

We're talking about a generational talent, yet it appears there's concerns with Micah and his dedication to the team. This quote from Jerry stands out a lot “Micah has to be the player that he wants to be paid as" goes a long way. We all know that Micah likes to do Micah and live his life. He does things in the off season, travels, podcasts, and it seems like he just wants to be involved in everything he can during the off season!

With that said, are there going to be stipulations about these things in his contract? How can the Cowboys go to someone like him and say hey, if you don't slow down with this, we won't do this for you?? Is that legal in terms of the CBA?

On April 7th we have voluntary workouts, will he show up if there's no deal by that date? I think we can all agree that there's NOTHING that will suggest that a deal doesn't get done. Micah will be a Cowboy and will be the highest paid.

Are you fine with stipulations being placed on him? Please give your thoughts

You can not include stuff in his contract that violates the NFLPA contract. You cant say to Micah, we need you to be at all off season workouts, even the "Voluntary," workouts. If you do that, they arent voluntary and they violate the general players contract.

Maybe Micah should stipulate that jerry step down as gm and hire someone to run the Cowboys like a legitimate franchise and not some rich man's hobby toy.

It is like your morning coffee, isnt it?
 
OP is obsessed with Micah's contract. This is like the 17th thread the past week.
I propose a mega thread, just keep adding.

I think they tried to get Randy Gregory that way years ago and we see how that turned out

Different situation, NFL was still fining for drug tests and the Gregory deal feel into a grey area as states were relaxing Marijuana laws but the NFL still had marijuana on the naughty list. Gregory up to that point pretty much missed parts of almost every season due to drug test violations.

Damn! You really don't even know what to talk about, anymore. As long as Micah doesn't start doing something stupid like becoming a....me, me, me, look at me, clown...constantly asking for thoughts on stupid topics. If he does, throw him in the Corral with ** Manchu for 8 seconds!!

Slow down coach. Walt Garrison was a real Cowboy. These was always talk the team should limit his rodeo activities during the off season.

Can't remember if they did or not. Not sure Micah has the mindset to get in a rodeo arena with 1800 lbs of mean.

But then he might scare that bull so bad it cowers in the chute.

I think we should trade him.
He is too undersized for how we use him.
That causes him to wear down at the end of games and the end of the season.
We are going to regret his large incoming contract.

I agree about him getting beat up playing the way he currently is being used. Probably not the most popular reply, but I wish they would've never put him on the edge. I think he's best at the LB position and it would have been a lot easier to build around him from there.

My understanding is that he is not a great LB .
Over runs plays and poor in coverage.
But I am not a scout . LOL

The guy has been a top 4 defensive player since the day he entered the league.... and we want to complain like the all knowing experts we are, that of course the team doesnt know what to do with him and are misusing him.... smh

This place is never full of surprises.

Why would the team give 2 ***** about vacations and podcasts during the offseason?
It’s the offseason and he’s a football player entitled to live a life outside of football during the offseason.
As long as he’s not doing something inherently stupid like shooting himself out of a canon in the circus or skydiving, or extreme mountain climbing or joining the Ukrainian army there’s no justification for stipulations for anything he’s done!

Why on earth would you want to get into highly unusual contract conditions? That is insulting to the player. Across the league, players take note of garbage like that.
