Ben DiNucci took a shot at Dallas Cowboys fans after the team traded Micah Parsons to the Green Bay Packers. On X/Twitter, the former Cowboys quarterback sent a short message to the fans ahead of the 2025 season.

“Dear Cowboys fans… Have a fun year. Ben,” DiNucci wrote. The Cowboys selected Ben DiNucci in the seventh round of the 2020 NFL Draft, and he was with the team for two seasons. The former James Madison star only saw action in the 2020 season and threw for 2019 yards in three games with one start.

The Cowboys waived DiNucci before the start of the 2022 season, and he has spent time with different NFL teams over the last three years. Most recently, DiNucci was with the Atlanta Falcons earlier this month, but played in just one preseason game before they released him earlier this week.

Micah Parsons did not troll Cowboys fans in his message to them

While DiNucci had fun with the Cowboys fans, Micah Parsons thanked them for making him feel at home as soon as the team drafted him in 2021. “From the moment I arrived in Dallas, you embraced me and my family as your own,” Parsons said in a statement shared on social media. “You made a kid from the east coast feel right at home in Texas. Every time I pulled up to work, every time I stepped onto that field, I felt the weight and pride of representing you. You didn’t just give me a jersey, you gave me a place to belong.”

“I never wanted this chapter to end, but not everything was in my control. My heart has always been here, and it still is. Through it all, I never made any demands. I never asked for anything more than fairness. I only asked that the person I trust to negotiate my contract be part of the process.”

In exchange for Parsons, the Cowboys received two first-round picks and defensive lineman Kenny Clark. Parsons then agreed to a four-year, $188 million contract with the Packers that includes $120 million fully guaranteed at signing, according to ESPN. He will become the highest-paid non-quarterback in NFL history.
