Cowboys Star Micah Parsons Responds to Former Teammate’s Comments on Super Bowl Chances
A social media spat erupted between Cowboys star pass rusher Micah Parsons and former teammate DeMarcus Lawrence after Lawrence made comments suggesting he couldn’t win a Super Bowl with the team. The exchange began when Lawrence said, “Dallas is my home… But I know for sure I’m not going to win a Super Bowl there.” Parsons responded by calling Lawrence’s comments “rejection and envy,” adding that he told the truth.
The feud was sparked by an interview in which Lawrence discussed his decision to leave Dallas for the Seattle Seahawks. According to Lawrence, the Cowboys didn’t offer him a contract this offseason, despite being one of the highest-paid defensive players in NFL history. The 32-year-old linebacker’s comments were seen as a criticism of Parsons and the team’s inability to deliver a Super Bowl title.
Parsons, who is entering his final year of rookie contract, has been on pace to have another impressive season, recording at least 10 sacks in each of his first four seasons. His performance has led to speculation about whether he’ll become the highest-paid non-quarterback in the NFL, with reports suggesting that Cleveland’s Myles Garrett took that title recently.
The Cowboys are still searching for their first Super Bowl title since 1995, and Parsons’ comments have reignited hopes among fans that the team will finally break through. However, Lawrence’s decision to leave may indicate that the team isn’t capable of achieving long-term success without major changes.
