It feels like just hours since Micah Parsons’ blockbuster trade to the Green Bay Packers : a staggering four-year, $188 million deal with $120 million guaranteed. It’s the kind of life-altering security that silences most doubts. But for a player who once wore Dallas as a second skin, the transaction feels like a severance. The most telling detail came from reporter Zack Jacobson, who noted that neither Jerry Jones nor Stephen Jones personally reached out to Parsons to inform him that he was being traded. All communication was filtered through his agent, David Mulugheta . The man Parsons once called “my dog” didn’t even try.
This palpable coldness is why the words of Cowboys legend Michael Irvin ring with the weight of saltiness “I’m just salty and I am. just a little.”
