Micah Parsons couldn’t get a deal with the Cowboys, but fans can get one for his jerseys.
Prices for clothing and other gear tied to the defensive player are dropping after he was shipped off to the Green Bay Packers in a trade that’s drawn the ire of Dallas fans.
At Fanatics, one version of the jerseys with the No. 11 was going for $44.99 and was marked “Clearance” with a discount code. That’s a reduction of roughly 65%. Another version — “Micah Parsons Dallas Cowboys Nike Vapor F.U.S.E. Limited Jersey – White” — was on clearance for $62.99, down from $174.99. A graphic T-shirt with his likeness was going for under $13 instead of about $35.
Other Parsons gear was getting deep discounts, including three-packs of newborn- an infant-sized items and a graphic T-shirt with the player for grown-ups.

What wasn’t on discount? The new Green Bay Packers jersey for Parsons is one example. It was featured for $129.99 with the “00” for the numbers.
Locally at Field of Dreams in Frisco, the shop has cut prices on some Parsons gear, according to Bill Patrick, a sales representative there. One signed and framed jersey that was about $1,500 was cut to about $700 on Friday — and a mini helmet was cut by 50% in price at the store that’s located at Stonebriar Centre, Patrick said. The situation is similar to what happened when Luka Doncic was traded to the Los Angeles Lakers from the Dallas Mavericks.
“He’s a not a Cowboy anymore,” Patrick said. “No matter what … he was great for us for four years” with awards in his rookie year and his overall sacks.
