Dallas Cowboys defensive end Micah Parsons is predicted to break the single-season sack record shared by Michael Strahan and T.J. Watt, according to ESPN’s Seth Walder. The current record stands at 22.5 sacks. Experts believe Parsons could surpass this mark within the next three seasons, possibly in 2025, 2026, or 2027.
Since joining the NFL in 2021, Parsons has been a standout player with a total of 310 pass rush wins, more than any other player during that period. His combination of speed and power has made him a formidable opponent for quarterbacks and a key player for the Cowboys’ defense.
Parsons has previously come close to challenging the record with 13 sacks in his rookie season, followed by 13.5 in 2022 and 14 in 2023. The Cowboys’ recent offseason moves have strengthened their defensive front, potentially giving Parsons an opportunity to break the record set by Strahan in 2001 and matched by Watt in 2021.
To achieve this feat, Parsons would need to maintain peak performance throughout the season while staying healthy and taking advantage of favorable matchups. The prediction adds excitement as Dallas heads into upcoming seasons with one of the league’s most feared defenses.
Michael Strahan recorded a total of 141.5 sacks over his Hall of Fame career and appeared in seven Pro Bowls. He is best known for setting the NFL single-season sack record with 22.5 sacks in 2001.
