Real or fake, does anyone know WHEN this "injury" supposedly took place?

Very good question

 

[CyberB0b]

It could be other teams in the NFL do not think he’s worth $42 million per season. Those teams certainly would not be willing to trade “TWO 1st rounders” etc. to inherit the Cowboys’ headache.

It definitely won’t be a team in the dumpster like Tennessee.

Who didn’t see this coming? Cant wait till we just move on.

Ya my thought s as well.How the hell you hurt your back when you haven't done squat except walk the sideline and make a spectacle of yourself

I agree 100% but THIS is what happens when you try and FORCE a player to play under terms he doesn't like. Sure, you as a team have the leverage but this thing is now going to an epic level of distraction for teammates, coaches and the locker room.

My point is....Parsons will get 98% blame here and rightfully so, but Jerry should have resolved this mess long ago.

I dont think either one is bluffing. It's more of a pissing contest at this point. We, the fans, lose with this mess.

I am becoming a bigger EZ fan every day.

Jerry made the same mistake again and again and again.

Never trades a player when the iron is still hot, now it's starting to cool.

I've advocated trading Parsons since before the 2024 draft. I pointed out that the time to trade a player is during his ascension- before his ceiling is known, and before injuries pop up.

I was ridiculed in 2024, but I have a LOT more company now!!!

 

[Teague31]

That’s how he still gets paid without ever suiting up. “Hurt”.

 

[IceStar-D7]

Glad to see Holden, Brooks, Fant, and Fairweather there.

And shout out to Malik Davis, who was literally out of the NFL three weeks ago, came into camp cold, and used the opportunity to get back on the PS again.

Just goes to show "hard work and never give up"...Happy for Davis...

LB Justin Barron
WR Jalen Brooks
DT Earnest Brown
G Saahdiq Charles
T Geron Christian
S Alijah Clark
WR Jalen Cropper
RB Malik Davis
TE Rivaldo Fairweather
TE Princeton Fant
QB Will Grier
CB Kemon Hall
WR Traeshon Holden
LB Buddy Johnson
CB Robert Rochell

A little surprised by Rochell, but he probably gets replaced by Childress or Booth. Thought La'el Collins might make it instead of Christian. Didn't have Cropper or Davis. Thought we'd hang on to Vaughn a little longer.

 

[SteveTheCowboy]

I'm guessing your are mostly wrong. His draft profile was a 5th rounder.

• Measurables fall well below NFL norm at the position.
• Takes runs off track unnecessarily at times.
• Needs to be quicker through the line in the pros.
• Runs with unusually long strides for a short back.
• Struggles to find instant acceleration after tapping brakes.
• Not built for blitz pickups.

Interesting, no Deuce.

Well, Parsons can't trade himself....... who's the blame for that???? lol

 

[DuncanIso]

Word is he's back on the Eagles PS.

 

[Pass2Run]

I liked Wheat but I always thought it would come down to Houston and him. I like Houston but wish Wheat had made it back. Those boneheaded game penalties probably done him in....

Houston has more upside and better at flex if need be.

 

[The Quest for Six]

Oh boy.......I'm confused
IF a 2nd opinion proves your back needs more time but the Cowboys' medical team clears you.....doesn't that impact your contract value? This is getting weird, with a capital W (lol)

There's nothing wrong with the big baby!

 

[Offsides]

At least Mafah is not annointed the next star RB like Bill Croskey who ran for 41 yards on like 17 carries except for a 27 yard TD run in preseason where no Bengals seemed within 5 yards of him. All other carries, he showed no ability to break tackles or make defenders miss.

 

[aikemirv]

Demarcus Lawrence all over again -wants to be out of Dallas but hurting his trade value and his long term value all in one fell swoop -he is not that bright!

 

[Vinnie2u]

So he’s getting a doctors note so he can skip school/work.. How juvenile

 

[TwistedL0g1k]

Too bad Parsons can't simply be honest. He has every right to withhold his services and miss game checks if he wants. I could respect that. This "back" issue is just disingenuous.

 

[IceStar-D7]

Coming from a lifetime Buckeye fan....NO!!!! Thanks...
