THE NFL world cannot believe that the Dallas Cowboys traded Micah Parsons.
On Thursday, the Cowboys flipped the NFL on its head by sending Parsons to the Green Bay Packers.

Parsons was holding out for a new contract with the Cowboys after four spectacular seasons to start his career.
However, Jerry Jones wasn’t interested in making Parsons the highest-paid defensive player in the NFL.
Instead, he let him go in exchange for two first-round picks and Pro Bowler Kenny Clark.
In his press conference after the trade, Jones showed that he didn’t care much at all about letting Parsons go.
“This gives us a chance to be a better team than we’ve had the last several years,” Jones said.
“We did think it was in the best interest of our organization, not only the future, but right now in this season as well.”
Jones basically said that Parsons wasn’t doing a good enough job and that the team is better now without him.
“We’ve gained a Pro Bowl player in an area that we had big concerns in — in the inside of our defense,” Jones said.
“The facts are we need to stop the run. We haven’t been able to stop the run for several years.”
Jones also indicated that he didn’t think Parsons was worth the contract that he got.
“I will say this: It was important that we did get, if we could get it, the kind of interest that we got in making a trade for Micah,” Jones said.
“He was an asset we got four good years out of. But when you’re talking about making the contract that he got and for the future, that’s quite a commitment.
“None of that counts about what he did the first four years.
“It goes against what he can do for you in the future.”
Throughout the entire press conference, Jones even further showed that he didn’t care about Parsons by calling him the wrong name.
He referred to his former superstar as Michael instead of Micah, being corrected multiple times.
