Some major NFL news tonight, as former Nittany Lion Micah Parsons was traded from the Dallas Cowboys to the Green Bay Packers in a four-year, $188 million deal, making it the largest contract for a non-quarterback in league history. The trade comes on the heels of Parsons demanding one at the beginning of August, citing prolonged disputes with the Cowboys’ front office over a contract extension.
Parsons’ first four seasons in the NFL have seen him live up to the hype as one of the top picks in the 2021 NFL Draft, racking up a total of 52.5 sacks, 63 tackles for loss, nine forced fumbles, and four fumble recoveries. It was enough to get him selected to the Pro Bowl four times (2021-2024) and also make the First Team All-Pro squad three times (2021-2023). It should go without saying that this is a massive pickup for the Packers, one that could see yet another former Penn State star helping lead his franchise to a Super Bowl trophy sooner rather than later.
Best of luck in Green Bay, Micah!
