They say that, but every reported that covers them should be asking them about it every single day until they either answer or get this resolved.
And risk having their access revoked?

Sports media in particular is all bought and paid for these days, they're mouthpieces at best.

Possible trade destinations:

Buffalo Bills
The Bills couldn't be more all in on winning a Super Bowl. And despite the fact that Joey Bosa has joined the team, they could absolutely use another pass-rusher from the linebacker corps.

Los Angeles Chargers
Khalil Mack is still around but getting long in the tooth. Tuli Tuipulotu and his eight sacks last year could use the help. This feels like a no-brainer for Jim Harbaugh's squad.

Seattle Seahawks
Leonard Williams isn't getting any younger. Same goes for DeMarcus Lawrence. Maybe the Seahawks think about giving up a ton to lock up Parsons, which might fit their timeline.

Washington Commanders
Look: I doubt Jones wants to trade Parsons within the division and see him wreak havoc twice a year. But the Commanders could REALLY use a pass-rusher as they try to contend.

Chicago Bears
The offense? That's totally fine under Ben Johnson. But the pass rush has Montez Sweat and not a ton otherwise. The Bears could absolutely use the help from a guy like Parsons

Detroit Lions
The Super Bowl window is open in Motor City. Aidan Hutchinson is coming back from that horrible injury, so why not add another body to rush the QB?

Goof Son: We don’t negotiate with terrorists.
They don’t negotiate with their own players, either. They just sit and wait until the last second, lose all leverage, and then overpay.

Lather. Rinse. Repeat.

As long as Joan Rivers gets his circus and media attention, nothing else matters.

Absolutely true, but integrity wise if they're doing their jobs that's what should happen.

But Jerry has most of them scared.

Yep. We've been saying it for years now and it's been showing up over and over and over.

The way they negotiate with their top stars is patently retarded.

I'd send him to Seattle or Chicago. Most likely to have the worst record.

So his plan is to ask for a trade but still show up to everything, play all the games, hit the offseason, get franchised, show up and play again next year, hit the offseason again, get franchised again, show up to everything again, play again, and hit free agency in 3 years?

That doesn't make sense.

Big difference. He was stating it was on the basis of wanting to win. In Parsons’ case, he was specific as to the comments and behaviors exhibited by the owners that brought him to demand a trade.

I honestly don't think that's much of a difference. It's from the same playbook.

This is personal now. If he signs, he will force a Dak like contract for DE, well above everyone else and even what others will get after.

For example, no next QB up after Dak has come close to 60 mil per.

I'm curious now, since everyone is blaming Jerry and Goof Son, what is the max you would pay Micah? At what point would you say, sorry, that's just absurd, and not do it?
I wouldn’t pay him….fuck it, trade him and move on. He’s not the best at his position so he shouldn’t be the highest paid at the position. Doesn’t mean I’m saying he’s bad, but he’s not THE best.
Then again…Micah or no Micah, this team isn’t going to a SB regardless. It’s pointless drivel and handwringing until Jerry is out because nothing is changing methodology wise.
