Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones wants to deal with David Mulugheta insofar as to get Micah Parsons’ agent to fill out the paperwork on the contract extension that was already negotiated.
During an appearance with Michael Irvin on Thursday, Jones said Mulugheta told him to shove the paperwork up their heinie.
“When we wanted to send the details to the agent, The agents told us to stick it up our a–,” Jones said. “Just so we’re clear. (Parsons) and I talked, and then we were going to send it over to the agent, and we had our agreements on term, amount, guarantees, everything.
“We were going to send it over to the agent, and the agent said, ‘Don’t bother, because we’ve got all that to negotiate.’ Well, I’d already negotiated. I’d already moved off my mark on several areas.”
Following an incoherent analogy to a child going between a mom and dad to negotiate, Jones accused Mulugheta of trying to “stick his nose” in negotiations to try to get the Cowboys to cave for a better deal for his client. Jones has no plans to back down from the agreement he had already worked out with Parsons.
“In my mind, for the Dallas Cowboys, we’ve got it done,” Jones said. “And if the agent wants to finish up the details, which he should, and do all the paperwork, he can do that, and we’re ready to go. But as far as the amount of money, the years, the guarantees, all of that we negotiated.”
Dallas is set to conclude its preseason against the Atlanta Falcons on Friday night with no end in sight to the biggest distraction on the team this summer.
