Micah Parsons is officially a member of the Green Bay Packers, and the members of the Dallas Cowboys are as stunned as the rest of the NFL world.
The situation of the Parsons contract with the Cowboys led to a commercial application that the owner and general manager Jerry Jones really complied, sending it to the Packers in an agreement that included the first-round selections of Green Bay and 2027 and the defensive Tackle All-Pro Kenny Clark.
According to reports, the Packers also gave Parsons an extension of the mass contract of four years and $ 188 million, which makes it the best paid quarterback of the league by a good margin.

But, as expected, the Cowboys players were surprised to see the news, including the open receptor Ceedee Lamb, who published an emoji crying in their Instagram stories with the publication of the NFL about the exchange.
The corner of the cowboys, Trevon Diggs, also published a broken heart emoji in X, since the two defensive players were close during their time together in the cowboys. However, Diggs added another tweet, congratulating Parsons for his new agreement and a new chapter of his NFL career despite having to be opponents now.
“Better in the world!” He wrote in X, labeling Parsons. “Congratulations to my brother!”
The security Juanyeh Thomas said: “Damn be …” with a broken heart emoji and a Steve Harvey gif that shows how it feels.
The Kavantae Turpin receiver also shared his initial thoughts about the trade.
“Yes, this league S — Crazy Lol,” Turpin said in X.
While the Cowboys players reacted to the reports, Parsons confirmed the commerce himself before the team finally did it, publishing a video of thanks in his account X. He also issued a statement, where he declared that “he never wanted this chapter to end.”
“Not everything was under my control,” Parsons wrote in his statement. “My heart has always been here, and it still is. In spite of everything, I never made any demand. I never asked for anything but justice. I only asked that the person I trust negotiating my contract is part of the process.”
The owner of the cowboys, Jerry Jones: the trade by Micah Parsons gives the team ‘opportunity to be better’ than the last years

Parsons requested an operation earlier this month while contract conversations continued to stop. He made a previous statement saying that “no longer” wanted to be in Dallas, but fans of the “United States team” expected it to be simply a negotiation tactic.
But Jones, despite saying that he was not thinking of changing Parsons, made the deal to move from the 26 -year -old star.
Parsons, who grew up a cowboys fan in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, thanked fans for their support in the last four years.
“From the moment I arrived in Dallas, you hugged me and my family like yours. You made a child from the east coast felt at home in Texas. Every time I stopped at work, every time I stepped on that field, I felt the weight and pride of representing you.

“The north of Texas will continue to be my home in the low season. I will still be here, giving back to the community that gave me so much. And it does not matter where I took the next chapter, the link we have built will never break. Thank you, nation of jeans, for every joy, every moment and every ounce of love that you showed me. Taking the star has been the honor of my life.”
