Packers' Micah Parsons Denounces 'Outrageous and Rough' Trade Timing After Dramatic Breakup with Cowboys
Green Bay traded defensive tackle Kenny Clark and two first-round picks to acquire Micah Parsons, who signed a four-year, $188 million extension, aiming to strengthen their defense for 2025.
- On Aug. 28, the Green Bay Packers acquired Micah Parsons from the Dallas Cowboys and signed the four-time Pro Bowler to a four-year extension with $136 million guaranteed.
- Green Bay first set its sights on Trey Hendrickson before pivoting to Micah Parsons, but Hendrickson agreed to a one-year, $29 million deal with the Cincinnati Bengals, ending that option.
- A wide slate of suitors checked on Parsons as talks broke down, with the Colts, Panthers, Bills and Patriots among at least four teams contacting the Dallas Cowboys despite public denials.
- Fans are buzzing as Parsons prepares for a likely limited Week 1 debut; the Packers said Parsons, 26, will suit up Sunday against the Detroit Lions at Lambeau Field.
- Analysts say the trade gives Dallas roster flexibility and salary cap relief, with Hall of Fame quarterback and analyst Terry Bradshaw emphasizing that Cowboys owner Jerry Jones did the right thing.
