Micah Parsons and Trevon Diggs aren’t being shy about whether they’ll be playing in Dallas over the long haul. The duo made some cryptic posts that set the internet ablaze with questions regarding whether they’ll be members of the Cowboys beyond 2025.
Responding to a picture of himself with Diggs, Parsons utilized a gif from the Bad Boys movie franchise. It featured Will Smith and Martin Lawrence fist-bumping while the words “One Last Time” flashed across the screen.

Then, Diggs responded in kind: “7|11 4L,” he posted. That’s alluding to the duo’s jersey numbers, with the cornerback letting his teammate know that whatever happens in the future, he’s got Parsons’ back, even if they continue their careers somewhere other than Dallas.

With Parsons embroiled in a very public negotiation with the Cowboys front office, there’s no telling how much of this is a ploy, or if there’s any truth to the duo looking to move on from Dallas. With a little over a month until the season begins, we’re certainly reaching an inflection point.
There’s been a general optimism that a deal will get done, but now it seems the two sides might be heading in the wrong direction. ESPN’s Adam Schefter actually stoked some concern for fans that a deal isn’t imminent between the two sides earlier this week.
“That deal is also nowhere close to being done,” Schefter said, via Get Up on Thursday. “Everybody has a perception that the deal between the Dallas Cowboys and Micah Parsons is gonna get done. Maybe one day it will because negotiations take twists and turns that you don’t expect, but today, Wednesday, July 31st, they are further apart on a deal than they were in late March.”
Parsons has proven in his career that he’s one of the best pass rushers in the NFL. A first round pick in 2021, Parsons was Rookie of the Year, is a four-time Pro Bowl selection, and a two-time First-Team All-Pro selection. For his career, Parsons has 52.5 sacks and 63 tackles for a loss in four seasons.
For Dallas, Parsons has become the centerpiece of the team’s defense. He’s a player whom the Cowboys were expected to build around. However, as Schefter shared, negotiations have broken down from where they were a few months ago.
Time will tell what the future holds for Micah Parsons and Trevon Diggs. The duo has been fantastic for Dallas, but the Cowboys don’t seem too eager to keep either player happy at the moment.
