Happy Saturday. Dallas Cowboys Nation. We’ve made it to the extended weekend with millions of people set to hit the road for Memorial Day Weekend, enjoy some cookouts, honor those who gave the ultimate sacrifice, spend some time with family, and soak in the unofficial kickoff of summer.

With the holiday weekend, there is no telling what kind of news will surface from Cowboys headquarters as players enjoy the break from OTAs, but in a few weeks, mandatory minicamp will kick off and the offseason will begin to ramp up.

It’s been an eventful week surrounding the team, with several players speaking out in support of head coach Brian Schottenheimer and the “energy” surrounding the team, so hopefully that is a sign of good things to come.

While we wait to see what the weekend brings, let’s take a quick spin around the internet and check out some of the news and headlines making waves online and across social media. Indulge.

Blogging the Boys takes a look at how Micah Parsons can solidify his standing atop franchise leaderboards in some key stat categories this season.

InsideTheStar.com identifies three Cowboys rookies who could be on the field as Week 1 starters.

Cowboys urged to make splash RB signing of former All-Pro by ex-NFL star… Micah Parsons named one of ‘next NFL dominoes to drop’ amid contract drama… CeeDee Lamb gets honest about shoulder rehab, ‘grateful’ for new season… Cowboys could regret not using early draft pick on certain position… Cowboys TE named team’s most underrated player entering 2025 season… Cowboys predicted to start season with brutal losing streak by NFL analyst… Jalen Tolbert gets major benefit from Cowboys’ George Pickens trade… Could Cowboys have surprise LT over Tyler Guyton in 2025 season?

When it comes to record-setting starts to their careers, there are very few in Dallas Cowboys franchise history (certainly modern history) that top Micah Parsons. The only legitimate argument in this sense may be Ezekiel Elliott.

Parsons is incredible, and we have seen him have all sorts of success through his first four seasons. To date he has racked up 52.5 sacks, time will tell if that is enough to earn a massive extension, and if he keeps up this average then he is going to continue to soar up the team’s record books.

Thanks to our friends at Stathead we can really look at history to see Parsons’ place in it.

2025 could see Micah Parsons really take hold of Dallas Cowboys history

As mentioned, Parsons has 52.5 career sacks to date. That is an absurd amount in just four seasons, but remember that he also missed a few games for the first time in 2024. Shockingly, Parsons’ 52.5 is not the most that any player has ever had through their first four seasons in team history. Pro Football Hall of Famer DeMarcus Ware has him beat out by one.

While Parsons missed time in the stretch that we are talking about so did Ware. Parsons feels like a unicorn in terms of production, but Ware was absolutely incredible early on in his own right.

For what it’s worth, Ware kept pace in his fifth season with the team. Following the 2009 campaign Ware sat at 64.5 sacks which is obviously the most that anyone has ever had in team history through their first five seasons. Harvey Martin came pretty close, though.

Parsons’ career average from a sack standpoint is 13.125, so if we assume that he notches at least 13 of them then he’ll reach 65 and take down Ware. Obviously there is more that we all want from the team than for players to achieve individual milestones, but that something like this is in reach is still pretty cool. (Also a note… it must have been an error for Parsons’ name to be listed here. I tried a few times to adjust it, but we obviously know he has not played five seasons).

If we assume that Parsons reaches that point, he will also climb into the top 10 for all-time sacks while a member of the Cowboys. He trails the outgoing DeMarcus Lawrence by nine at the moment and that would be the person he pushes out of the proverbial club.

This is perhaps the most stunning look at what Parsons has done to this point in his career. He is sitting on 63 total games played and if he suits up for every one in 2025 then he will total 80. But even then, the next-closest to him in that sense would be a three-way tie between DeMarcus Ware, DeMarcus Lawrence and George Andrie. Funny that both Ware and Lawrence each played 141 games for the team.

We are watching the beginning of one of the all-time careers in Dallas Cowboys franchise history. What Parsons has done and what we assume he will continue to do are astonishing. Hopefully he can add a championship to everything he is accomplishing as well.
