Micah Parsons Gets OT Sack but Nobody Wins in Packers' Visit to Dallas a Month After Trade
Micah Parsons plays his first Dallas game since a $188 million contract extension trade with the Packers, becoming the highest-paid non-quarterback in NFL history.
- On Sunday, Micah Parsons, Green Bay Packers defensive end and two-time All-Pro, returns to AT&T Stadium for Sunday Night Football one month after the trade.
- The trade hinged on Parsons agreeing to a $188 million, four-year extension that yielded a $47 million annual average, ending the contract stalemate with the Dallas Cowboys.
- Parsons briefly left with an apparent injury and visited the medical tent before returning; he finished with one solo tackle, one sack, two assisted tackles, and three quarterback hurries.
- The game finished tied 40-40 after a regulation drive that produced a tying field goal; Parsons' overtime sack helped force a short Brandon Aubrey field goal, but no winner emerged.
- Fans offered mixed cheers and boos when Micah Parsons took the field for Green Bay's first defensive play, while Dallas owner Jerry Jones said Parsons would not receive a video tribute before the game.
