Parsons was sent to the Packers in exchange for defensive tackle Kenny Clark and two first-round picks. The All-Pro pass rusher plans to sign a four-year, $188 million deal with $136 million guaranteed, upon arriving in Green Bay, which will make him the highest-paid non-quarterback in NFL history with a $47 million annual salary.

The trade concludes a month of drama within the Cowboys organization after Parsons shared a lengthy statement publicly requesting a trade on his social media accounts.

"Yes I wanted to be here," Parsons wrote on August 1. "I did everything I could to show that I wanted to be a Cowboys and wear the star on my helmet. I wanted to play in front of the best fans in sports and make this Americas team once again. The team my pops and I grew up cheering for way up in Harrisburg, PA. Unfortunately I no longer want to be here. I no longer want to be held to close door negotiations without my agent present. I no longer want shots taken at me for getting injured while laying it on the line for the organization our fans and my teammates. I no longer want narratives created and spread to the media about me. I had purposely stayed quiet in hopes of getting something done."

Parsons' confirmation came hours after the Athletic's Dianna Russini reported that Parsons' relationship with the Cowboys had "deteriorated" among ongoing contract negotiations to the point that he's considering a trade request or even "severing his relationship with the team." The Cowboys exercised the fifth-year option on Parsons' rookie contract, which was set to expire after the 2025 season.
