Micah Parsons Traded Cowboys Packers; Mother Wears Cowboys Gear Eagles Game

The Dallas Cowboys traded All-Pro linebacker Micah Parsons to the Green Bay Packers after contract negotiations stalled, with the Packers signing him to a record-breaking four-year, $188 million extension. Despite the trade, Parsons' mother, Sherese Parsons, was spotted attending the Cowboys' season opener against the Philadelphia Eagles, dressed in Cowboys apparel, a gesture that has drawn attention due to the recent split. Cowboys owner Jerry Jones explained the trade as a strategic decision based on Parsons' high compensation and injury risks, emphasizing the team's aim to build depth rather than rely on one star player. Parsons, a Harrisburg, Pennsylvania native, faces a back injury that may limit his playing time in the upcoming Packers game. The Eagles had shown strong interest in Parsons prior to the trade, but Dallas refused to trade him within the NFC East, instead acquiring defensive tackle Kenny Clark and two first-round picks from Green Bay in return. Sherese's presence at the game, coupled with her recent interactions with Jones and her son's celebrations with the Packers, highlights the complex personal and professional dynamics surrounding the trade.
