Parsons is an infrequent visitor to the voluntary offseason workouts, though Schottenheimer asked him to attend the first voluntary session in the spring, which he did. Parsons showed up again Tuesday and didn’t work out because of a tight back, a result of working out with, yes, Diggs, his close friend.

Dallas Cowboys head coach Brian Schottenheimer shared that Micah Parsons has turned up to minicamp and shed some light on how much work he will do.

Parsons is waiting for Jones to budge on a contract that could exceed the highest non-quarterback deal in the NFL, currently Cincinnati receiver Ja’Marr Chase with a $40.25 million average per year. Cleveland edge rusher Myles Garrett recently agreed to a deal worth $40 million per year.
