Dak Prescott is another notable name who engaged in new contract talks with the Cowboys as recently as last season. While Prescott never went as far as publicly demanding a trade, he empathizes with Parsons' situation and firmly believes a solution can be found.

Parsons, who is holding in during Cowboys training camp as he seeks a contract extension, has not practiced since making his trade request public on Friday. He remains present with the team and in uniform but has stayed on the sideline during team and joint practices, including Tuesday's session against the Los Angeles Rams.
