- Steelers lose out on Micah Parsons sweepstakes as Cowboys, Packers pull off massive trade
While it would've taken an absolute miracle, the Pittsburgh Steelers missed out on the grand prize that is superstar Micah Parsons — as the Dallas Cowboys are trading him to the Green Bay Packers .
On Thursday, the back-and-forth contract woes between the Cowboys and Parsons finally came to an end — as NFL insider Tom Pelissero reported the Packers were acquiring Dallas' superstar edge rusher, as well as helping him surpass T.J. Watt as the highest-paid non-quarterback.

"The Cowboys are trading Micah Parsons to the Packers, who will sign him to a four-year, $188 million extension with $136M guaranteed," Pelissero wrote via X.
Following the blockbuster news, ESPN's Adam Schefter reported the following trade package:
Cowboys receive:
-
DT Kenny Clark
-
Two first-round draft picks
Packers receive:
-
EDGE Micah Parsons
Considering the hefty haul sent by Green Bay , there was likely zero chance the Steelers could've competed with such a deal — even if Parsons did hint at joining Pittsburgh last February.
