One of the biggest decisions the Dallas Cowboys will need to make sooner rather than later is how to handle star edge rusher Micah Parsons.

Parsons is in line for a blockbuster deal that would make him the highest-paid non-quarterback in the NFL, but he has also been linked to trade rumors that could land him with a division rival.

The former Penn State star has said he would be willing to take less money so the team could add more stars to the roster in the offseason, and has expressed his desire to get a deal done sooner rather than later.

However, his brother Terrence Parsons Jr. doesn't appear to believe Micah and the Cowboys are on the same timeline.

In a series of tweets, Terrence hinted the Cowboys and Parsons are very far apart, but did outline how the Cowboys could free up some money entering the offseason.

Terrence responded to a tweet about the likelihood Dallas and Micah would agree to a contract extension before free agency begins.

Knowing Jerry Jones' history of dragging his feet in contract negations, it really isn't a hot take. It would be shocking if Parsons was moved, let along in less than a weeks
