Jerry Jones offers new comments on dispute with Micah Parsons

The Dallas Cowboys have yet to find common ground in their ongoing contract dispute with Micah Parsons, and Jerry Jones offered some new comments about the situation on Thursday.

Jones was asked about Parsons during an interview with the “FOX & Friends” show on FOX News. The 82-year-old spoke about how much he respects Parsons as a player but suggested Dallas is trying to extend Parsons while also having enough money to pay other players.

“Micah’s a great player — not a good player, but a great player,” Jones said. “He knows more than anyone that it’s a team thing. 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 playing with Micah. That’s the art of the deal and that’s that we’re trying to get done. We’re trying to make this thing work, but we have all the appreciation in the world of what he can mean to the years ahead. We’re glad to have him.”
