Earlier this year, Jerry Jones made the surprising decision to trade <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/micah-parsons" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Micah Parsons</a> to the Green Bay Packers. Now, the elite pass rusher will miss the remainder of the 2025 NFL season after suffering a serious knee injury, prompting a reaction from the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dallas-cowboys" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Dallas Cowboys</a> owner.



In Week 15, Parsons tore his ACL during the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/green-bay-packers" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Packers</a>’ matchup against the Denver Broncos. The devastating injury officially ended his season, drawing reactions from several NFL figures—including Jones—following the unfortunate news surrounding one of the league’s top defensive players.



“I’m sad for Micah. That’s quite a challenge,” <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/jerry-jones" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Jerry Jones</a> said on 105.3 The Fan, per Jon Machota. “I wish him the very best on his recovery. Michael Irvin said when he had his big surgery during, I think, his second year with the Cowboys, he said he realized what football really did mean to him.



“And he said the surgery really launched him into the best part of his career, because he got to feel what it might look like not to play again. There’s a lot of ways you can couch this thing. But, Micah, I wish you the very best.“



<h2>A major blow for the Packers</h2>



When Green Bay acquired Micah Parsons, the move was made with one clear goal in mind: strengthening the defense for a Super Bowl run. Unfortunately, the Packers will now have to pursue that ambition without their defensive star.



Parsons was enjoying an outstanding season in Green Bay following his trade from Dallas. He finished his campaign with 12.5 sacks, just 1.5 shy of his career-high mark in a single season—production that played a significant role in the Packers’ defensive success.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nfl/packers-micah-parsons-breaks-silence-on-season-ending-injury"></div>


Injuries have plagued Green Bay throughout the season, and the loss of Parsons is among the most significant. During the same game against Denver, the Packers also lost wide receiver Christian Watson. Fortunately, his injury is not expected to sideline him for more than one game, depending on his recovery.



<h2>Can the Packers make the 2026 playoffs?</h2>



Following their Week 15 loss to the Broncos, the Packers surrendered the NFC North lead to the Chicago Bears. Although Green Bay defeated Chicago in Week 14, the loss dropped the club back into second place in the division.

The two teams will meet again in Week 16, giving the Packers a chance to reclaim first place with a victory. As it stands, Green Bay is currently the No. 7 seed in the NFC, holding the final Wild Card spot as the playoff race tightens.

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/micah-parsons">Micah Parsons</a> made it clear that the setback he’s facing goes far beyond the physical pain of the injury that has now sidelined him. While the star pass rusher did not detail a specific return timeline, his words revealed how difficult it has been to step away from the field at a critical moment.



Still, Parsons framed the injury as more than just a temporary halt to his season. He spoke openly about the emotional and mental toll of being unable to help his teammates on the field, while also emphasizing that the support he has received inside the locker room has helped him navigate this period.



“I may be sidelined, but I am not defeated. This injury is my greatest test—a moment God allowed to strengthen my testimony. I believe He walks with me through this storm and chose me for this fight because He knew my heart could carry it. I’m deeply grateful to the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/green-bay-packers">Packers</a> organization and my teammates for their unwavering support, love, and belief in me during this season. I trust His timing, His plan, and His purpose. I will rise again.” Parsons wrote on his X account (@micahhparsons11).



<h2>Fans rally behind Parsons</h2>



Following his message, it was obvious that not only Packers fans but football fans everywhere would respond to Parsons. Most people wished him well, with even some Bears fans expressing hope to see him back next season.

 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nfl/micah-parsons-injury-update-confirms-worst-case-scenario-for-packers"></div>


Even Dez Bryant reposted Parsons’ message with a folded hands emoji, and Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel wrote: “….He’s still a strong all-pro candidate and the most dominant defensive player the Packers have had since Reggie White.”

Packers’ Micah Parsons breaks silence on season-ending injury

Packers' Micah Parsons breaks silence on season-ending injury - Bolavip US

One of the most tense moments at Empower Field Stadium on Sunday came when <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/micah-parsons">Micah Parsons</a> went down to the turf without any contact from a teammate or an opponent. Following the necessary medical evaluations, the severity of the Green Bay Packers edge rusher’s injury was ultimately revealed.



According to Jordan Schultz on X, an MRI confirmed a torn ACL for the talented pass rusher, who had been putting together an All-Pro–caliber season in his first year with the team. The former Cowboys star’s season has officially come to an end.



The Packers made a major bet by bringing in Parsons, making this setback a tough blow for <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/matt-lafleur">Matt LaFleur</a> and the rest of the team. With their playoff chances still intact, it now becomes a matter of how they will truly replace him on the field.



With only three games remaining on Green Bay’s schedule (Bears, Ravens and Vikings), being without its biggest stars on the field could prove to be a major disadvantage. Now is the time for <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/jordan-love">Jordan Love</a> to elevate the offense and push past this setback.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1920" height="1080" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20251215_BUS_545944_micah-parsons-2_1217638b.webp&amp;width=1920&amp;height=1080" alt="Micah Parsons" class="wp-image-545953"></figure><figcaption>Micah Parsons #1 of the Green Bay Packers.</figcaption></figure>



<h2>How much will the Packers miss Parsons?</h2>



The season-ending injury to star edge rusher Micah Parsons is a catastrophic loss for the Packers. In his dominant 2025 campaign, Parsons was having a phenomenal year, recording 19 solo tackles, leading the team with 12.5 sacks, and adding 2 forced fumbles (with 0 interceptions). 


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nfl/packers-micah-parsons-breaks-silence-on-season-ending-injury"></div>


The former Dallas Cowboys star was the most crucial piece of the Green Bay Packers’ pass rush, often drawing double teams, which allowed other players to pressure the quarterback. 



<h2>Who could replace Parsons?</h2>



The loss of Micah Parsons necessitates an immediate shuffle in the Packers’ pass-rushing rotation. Stepping up to fill the void are current depth chart defensive ends Kingsley Enagbare and Arron Mosby, who will be asked to significantly increase their snap counts and production. 



Crucially, the burden of generating pressure now falls heavily onto established rushers like Rashan Gary, Lukas Van Ness, and Barryn Sorrell, provided they remain healthy and available.

Micah Parsons’ injury update confirms worst-case scenario for Packers - Bolavip US

The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/green-bay-packers">Green Bay Packers</a>’ visit to Mile High ended on a decidedly negative note. Not only did they suffer a tough loss to the Broncos statistically, but during the game they also saw two of their key players, Micah Parsons and Christian Watson, go down on the field.



Seeing the WR go down holding one of his shoulders suggested the worst-case scenario. However, according to insider Ian Rapoport on X, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/christian-watson">Watson</a> did not suffer a major injury, making the outlook more positive than initially feared.



One of <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/jordan-love">Love</a>’s key weapons exited the game after taking a hard hit on his left side while attempting to catch a deep pass from his quarterback in the third quarter, and he was shortly thereafter ruled out with a chest injury.



Had he suffered a more serious injury, it would have been a major blow for Matt LaFleur, who had already received <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/micah-parsons-injury-update-packers-receive-terrible-news-after-loss-to-broncos">terrible news regarding Micah Parsons’ status following the loss to the Broncos.</a>

<h2>What happened to Micah Parsons?</h2>



Last night, star edge rusher Micah Parsons went down with a severe injury. The non-contact incident occurred late in the third quarter when Parsons planted his leg awkwardly while pursuing the quarterback and immediately grabbed his left knee. 


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nfl/packers-make-desperate-last-minute-roster-move-amid-josh-jacobs-uncertainty-to-face-broncos"></div>


He was quickly ruled out for the remainder of the game, and unfortunately, initial fears suggest the injury is a torn ACL. Head Coach <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/matt-lafleur">Matt LaFleur</a> commented that the outlook “doesn’t look good,” indicating a potential season-ending injury that would be a tremendous loss for the Packers’ defense.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1920" height="1080" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20251215_BUS_545791_Micah-Parsons-looks-down_154e69e1.webp&amp;width=1920&amp;height=1080" alt="Micah Parsons looks down" class="wp-image-500387" sizes="(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px"></figure><figcaption>Micah Parsons #1 of the Green Bay Packers takes a knee.</figcaption></figure>



<h2>A painful loss for the Packers</h2>



After falling at Empower Field Stadium, the Packers dropped to a 9–4–1 record and, following the Bears’ victory over the Browns, lost their lead in the NFC North. Despite this, according to the <a href="https://www.nfl.com/standings/playoff-picture">NFL’s official website</a>, their chances of making the playoffs stand at 88 percent heading into Week 16.



The Packers still have three games remaining to secure their playoff goal: the Bears at Soldier Field, the Ravens at Lambeau Field, and finally the Minnesota Vikings on the road.

Christian Watson injury update: Packers get positive news on the WR after Micah Parsons' setback - Bolavip US

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/micah-parsons">Micah Parsons</a> is likely to be sidelined for the remainder of the season. Following the most recent report on his injury sustained during the Green Bay Packers‘ loss to the Denver Broncos, it is feared to be a severe knee injury.



NFL Network insider Ian Rapoport reported on X: “Packers edge Micah Parsons, believed to have suffered a torn ACL, finished his season with 12.5 sacks and a significant piece of one of the NFL’s best defenses. But his injury knocks him out for the end of the regular season and beyond.”



Regarding the Parsons injury and its potential benefit to the Bears, Jacob Infante of Windy City Gridiron stated on X: “I feel bad for Micah Parsons on a human level for his injury. Never good to see guys get hurt. I don’t give a s— about how it pertains to the Bears, their playoff chances, or their game next week. Playoffs are on the line. None of this ‘beat them at their best’ c—.”



<h2>Packers lose another player to ACL tear</h2>



Parsons is not the only <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/green-bay-packers">Packers</a> player with a torn ACL. It’s worth remembering that Tucker Kraft had already suffered the same injury in November, making him an important starter for the team. 



<div class="ck-twitter"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-media-max-width="560">Another view of Micah Parsons non contact injury. Change of direction, could walk after.

Furthermore, during the same game against the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/denver-broncos">Broncos</a> where Parsons was injured, it is suspected that other players may have also suffered injuries, including Christian Watson, Zach Tom, and Quay Walker, according to information shared by SleeperPackers.

Packers edge rusher Rashan Gary spoke about the potential season-ending injury for Parsons, saying, “I told him to keep his head up, and we’re going to finish strong for him,” in a message also intended to encourage his other teammates.



<h2>Packers’ playoff situation</h2>



Currently, the Packers, with a 9-4-1 record, have an 88% playoff probability. This is strong, as they are the second-best team in the NFC North. They still have games scheduled against the Bears, Ravens, and Vikings. It is highly probable that they will at least secure a Wild Card spot.

Micah Parsons injury update: Packers receive terrible news after loss to Broncos - Bolavip US

The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/green-bay-packers" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Green Bay Packers</a> have a defensive stud in edge rusher Micah Parsons. He is one of the favorites to win an NFL award this year, but one player is above him. Against the possibility of missing the achievement, the player opened up about his motivations and spoke about Myles Garrett, a Shedeur Sanders teammate on the Cleveland Browns.



<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/myles-garrett" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Garrett</a> is on pace to break the single-season sacks record. He is four sacks away and there are five games to go. This puts him over Parsons in the Defensive Player of the Year odds. Parsons spoke about it.



“I think it’ll be a nice accolade if I’m able to achieve that once in my career, but for right now, I just been playing for respect,” <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/micah-parsons" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Parsons</a> said to Matt Schneidman of TheAthletic.com. “I think that’s kind of what’s making me go.” He also said Garrett is “his own different specimen, and he has his own team, and what they do and what they do is special.“



<h2>Garrett is entering historical levels of dominance</h2>



Myles Garrett is a four-time first-team All Pro, a one-time DPOY, and a six-time Pro Bowler. During his nine years in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NFL</a>, he’s had double-digit sacks in every single season except for his rookie year. 



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1920" height="1080" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20251205_BUS_540195_Myles-Garrett-defensive-end-for-the-Cleveland-Browns-1_3f446c18.webp&amp;width=1920&amp;height=1080" alt="Myles Garrett, star defensive end for the Cleveland Browns" class="wp-image-339192" sizes="(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px"></figure><figcaption>Myles Garrett, defensive end for the Cleveland Browns</figcaption></figure>



He commands two or three men from the opposing team to try and control him and he still dominates the trenches. If he retired today, Myles Garrett is likely to go to the Hall of Fame. If he is able to break the sacks record, it’s just confirmation of how good he is despite playing with <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/shedeur-sanders" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Shedeur Sanders</a> in a dysfunctional franchise like the Browns.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nfl/titans-receive-clear-message-from-shedeur-sanders-after-snubbing-him-ahead-of-browns-matchup"></div>


<h2>Parsons could be the heir to Garrett’s throne</h2>



Garrett is 30-years old, while Parsons is just 26, entering his prime. Parsons has 65 sacks already in his career and his lowest number of sacks in a season is 12, a number he already overcame in 2025.



He is a four-time Pro Bowler and a two-time first team All Pro. When Garrett’s time passes, he is undoubtedly the guy who could become a Hall of Famer one day. For now, it’s all about respect, as Parsons said.

One of the most anticipated Thanksgiving matchups in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl">NFL</a> is undoubtedly the showdown at Ford Field, where the Detroit Lions will host the Green Bay Packers. This divisional clash could play a pivotal role in shaping both teams’ playoff hopes.



The talent Matt LaFleur has at his disposal is undeniable—especially on offense, where playmakers like Jordan Love and Josh Jacobs headline the unit. However, according to recent comments from Dan Campbell, the player to watch is <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/micah-parsons">Micah Parsons</a>.



“We know he’s a dynamic player, he’s a dynamic rusher,” the head coach said in a recent interview. “This guy plays hard, he’s got a quick first step, he’s powerful, he’s quick.”



<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dan-campbell">Campbell</a> also added: “You see him club the tight end, nudges him, already beats that. Then the tackle engages him, then the slide comes to him, the guard gets on him and he beats both of them. And that’s just it. If you’re going to use that many resources, you have to stop this guy. And he’ll just keep coming.”



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1920" height="1080" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20251126_BUS_533879_micah-parsons_c1fb9764.webp&amp;width=1920&amp;height=1080" alt="Micah Parsons Packers" class="wp-image-533896"></figure><figcaption>Micah Parsons #1 of the Green Bay Packers.</figcaption></figure>



<h2>Parsons’ impact on the Packers’ defense</h2>



Micah Parsons, having joined the Green Bay Packers in the latest offseason, has continued to establish himself as one of the league’s elite defensive players. Through 11 games (10 starts) of the 2025 season with Green Bay, Parsons has accumulated 30 total tackles, including 14 solo tackles and 16 assisted tackles. 


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nfl/nfl-teams-that-finished-a-season-winless"></div>


His pass-rushing dominance is evident with 10.0 sacks and 9 tackles for loss (TFL). Additionally, he has recorded 1 forced fumble in his tenure with the Packers. These statistics demonstrate Parsons’ immediate and significant impact on the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/green-bay-packers">Green Bay</a> defense since his arrival.



<h2>A pivotal showdown for Detroit and Green Bay</h2>



The annual Thanksgiving clash between the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/detroit-lions">Detroit Lions</a> and the Green Bay Packers is absolutely crucial for the NFC North title race. With both teams competing fiercely for the division crown, this game offers more than just a win; it provides a vital tiebreaker advantage. 



A Packers victory would complete the season sweep, giving them a significant head-to-head edge over the Lions. Conversely, a win for the Lions would level the standings and keep them firmly in the hunt, preventing Green Bay from gaining a major path to the division title. This holiday contest is essentially a playoff game with massive implications for the postseason.

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/micah-parsons">Micah Parsons</a> was fined $12,172 by the NFL after reviewing the game between the Green Bay Packers and the Philadelphia Eagles. The defending <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/super-bowl">Super Bowl</a> champions came away with a 10-7 win at Lambeau Field.



The star defensive player was penalized for a sequence that occurred with 4:08 left in the fourth quarter. Saquon Barkley had the ball and, to stop him, Parsons extended his leg and tripped the running back.



What’s striking is that during the game the officials didn’t throw a flag, so the fine for the former <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dallas-cowboys">Dallas Cowboys</a> player only came after the NFL’s postgame review. It was officially labeled as ‘striking/kicking/tripping/kneeing’.



<h2>Why did Cowboys trade Micah Parsons?</h2>



The Dallas Cowboys traded Micah Parsons because Jerry Jones was not willing to give him a contract extension close to $47 million per season. The owner allegedly had a handshake agreement for less money with the player, but when agent David Mulugheta got involved, any discussion came to an end.


 

 


Parsons was traded to the Packers in exchange for two first-round picks and defensive tackle Kenny Clark, and he already had a historic four-year, $188 million deal lined up to play for Green Bay.



As a consequence, the Cowboys’ defense has been one of the worst in the NFL, while Micah has become a key piece for the Packers with 6.5 sacks and 11 solo tackles.

Micah Parsons has been severely punished by NFL

Jerry Jones made a shocking decision when he decided to trade <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/micah-parsons">Micah Parsons</a> from the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dallas-cowboys">Dallas Cowboys</a> to the Green Bay Packers in exchange for two first-round picks and Kenny Clark. Now, a report from Adam Schefter has revealed new details about the move, including a condition that Jones placed on the Packers. 



“Unbeknownst to everyone except the few who crafted the August blockbuster trade that sent Parsons from Dallas to Green Bay was a ‘poison pill’ condition that, according to sources involved with the deal, prevents the two-time All-Pro from playing for Philadelphia in the immediate future. The previously unreported condition states that if the Packers decide to trade Parsons to a team in the NFC East (the Eagles tried to trade for him in the summer before being rebuffed) then Green Bay would owe Dallas its 2028 first-round draft pick, sources involved in the trade told ESPN.”



For many weeks, the defending <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/super-bowl">Super Bowl</a> champions were mentioned as a possible destination for Parsons. For that reason, Jerry Jones wanted to prevent any kind of future trade or workaround that could send him to their NFC East rival.



<h2>Why did the Cowboys trade Micah Parsons?</h2>



The Cowboys traded Micah Parsons because Jerry Jones became upset with the player after what was supposedly a handshake agreement between them. The star’s agent decided to step in, as the money being discussed was far from what they had expected.


 

 


When David Mulugheta took over the negotiations, Jones no longer wanted to deal with the agent and began looking for suitors for Parsons. The Packers made the best offer and also gave Micah a four-year, $188 million contract extension. Jerry wasn’t going to pay that.



By the way, in an interesting twist, the restriction also applies to Kenny Clark, according to Schefter’s report. “The ‘poison pill’ condition also was used on Kenny Clark, the other player involved in the trade, according to sources. If the Cowboys trade Clark to a team in the NFC North, they would owe the Packers their 2028 first-round pick.”

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/micah-parsons">Micah Parsons</a> admitted that after learning Marshawn Kneeland had passed away, he reached out to several of his former teammates with the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dallas-cowboys">Dallas Cowboys</a> to tell them he loves them and that they may have taken for granted the time they spent together.



“We should all just use this time to stay prayed up. Keep praying. Praying for your loved ones. Praying that people find peace and also just continue to reach out to our loved ones. It made me reach out to some friends I have back home, former teammates, about how we took for granted the time we had together. Life’s just so short. So, we should really just start appreciating a little bit more and just loving people.”



The star defensive player always believed he would bring a <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/super-bowl">Super Bowl</a> to the Cowboys, but suddenly, Jerry Jones decided to trade him to the Green Bay Packers. Because of that, the tragic situation led him to reach out to his friends in Dallas during such a difficult time.



<h2>What happened to Marshawn Kneeland?</h2>



Marshawn Kneeland passed away at just 24 years old. Because of that, Micah Parsons sent a clear message about mental health and how important this issue should be for NFL players.


 

 


“We’ll be fools to act like what we do isn’t enough pressure as it is. You know, we live in a pressure job where you’re expected to deliver and you’re expected to play a certain way, and when you don’t, it’s easy to say: ‘Oh, man, it’s so sad.’ But a lot of people are hard on people. ‘You suck. You stink.’ There’s a lot of harsh words and harsh things that get said about people. As athletes, most of us see it, some of us don’t, but we choose to wait until somebody passes to realize what we say and what we do, how it can affect people.”



Parsons expressed his willingness to help Kneeland’s family. “Marshawn’s a guy who loved his anime, loved his video games like anybody else. To me, he always showed me nothing but respect from the moment he came into the locker room. He respected me as a player. He respected me as a person. So, I have nothing but high respect for him.

I just hope that he finds his peace and his family finds peace in this situation.”

NFL News: Micah Parsons contacts Jerry Jones’ Cowboys teammates after a very difficult time

Jerry Jones is still considering whether the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dallas-cowboys">Dallas Cowboys</a> will make a trade before the NFL deadline. In recent days, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/myles-garrett">Myles Garrett</a> and Maxx Crosby have been rumored as options to replace Micah Parsons.



During an interview with 105.3 The Fan, Jones made it clear that if there is any surprising move to help <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dak-prescott">Dak Prescott</a> and his teammates, he expects the impact to be immediate. Surprisingly, he used Jonathan Mingo as an example.



“Well, if it’s got to do anything to do with this season, at this juncture in the season, it’s real important they hit the ground running. That’s still not to say that you wouldn’t make a trade for the potential future. Jonathan Mingo was that type of trade last year. We didn’t anticipate him really getting in and in a very short time being able to come in here and help. We liked the value on a going forward basis.”



<h2>Are the Cowboys trading for Myles Garrett or another pass rusher?</h2>



The Cowboys have not publicly said that they are looking for a pass rusher, but multiple reports in recent weeks have indicated that they have called several teams to inquire about star players. In fact, insider Jay Glazer mentioned Tyre Hendrickson and Maxx Crosby.


 

 


In this scenario, Jerry Jones was asked whether players like Dak Prescott or other veterans have leverage in the locker room to influence him to make a trade. The owner’s response was hilarious.



“Yeah, except if not in Dak’s case, but except if we’re trading for a player that’s going to take their job. I haven’t had anybody come to the door to try to get that guy in the door (laughs). You get the point. It’s perspective.”

Garrett seems like a very long shot for the Cowboys considering the player’s salary and the fact that, at least in recent hours, several reports have indicated that the Browns are not willing to let go of their star.

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/aidan-hutchinson">Aidan Hutchinson</a> and the Detroit Lions have reportedly agreed to a lucrative contract extension for the defensive end on Wednesday, making him one of the highest-paid pass rushers in the NFL. However, his salary still trails that of Micah Parsons with the Green Bay Packers.



While Hutchinson’s new deal is worth an impressive $45 million per year, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/micah-parsons">Parsons</a> leads the pack with $46.5 million in average annual salary. TJ Watt is third with $41 million per year, followed by Myles Garrett ($40 million). Here’s the top 10:



<ol><li>Micah Parsons (Green Bay Packers): $46.5M</li><li>Aidan Hutchinson (Detroit Lions): $45M</li><li>TJ Watt (Pittsburgh Steelers): $41M</li><li>Myles Garrett (Cleveland Browns): $40M</li><li>Danielle Hunter (Houston Texans): $35.6M</li><li>Maxx Crosby (Las Vegas Raiders): $35.5M</li><li>Nick Bosa (San Francisco 49ers): $34M</li><li>Trey Hendrickson (Cincinnati Bengals): $29M</li><li>Josh Hines-Allen (Jacksonville Jaguars): $28.25M</li><li>Brian Burns (New York Giants): $26.5M</li></ol>



<h2>The terms of Aidan Hutchinson’s new Lions contract</h2>



Adam Schefter of ESPN reported that, according to Hutchinson’s agent Mike McCartney, the star edge rusher’s new contract with the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/detroit-lions">Lions</a> is a four-year deal worth $180 million, with $141 million guaranteed — the most ever for a non-quarterback, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20251029_BUS_517377_aidan-hutchinson-1024x576_781c2429.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=576" alt="Aidan Hutchinson during a Lions game." class="wp-image-517398" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure><figcaption>Aidan Hutchinson during a Lions game.</figcaption></figure>



Selected second overall by Detroit in the 2022 NFL Draft, Hutchinson was under contract through 2026 after the Lions triggered the fifth-year option on his rookie contract. Now, Hutchinson is locked up through 2030.


 

 

 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nfl/nfl-teams-that-have-never-won-or-appeared-in-a-super-bowl"></div>


His extension makes sense, considering how the Michigan product lived up to the expectations that come with being a first-round pick. His performance in the NFL has been fantastic, including a 2023 season that saw him make the Pro Bowl after posting a career-high 11.5 sacks.



A fractured tibia and fibula ended his season prematurely six weeks into the 2024 campaign, but he came back stronger this year. In 2025, Hutchinson boasts six sacks, 29 quarterback pressures (only behind Parsons’ 33), and four forced fumbles (tied with Joey Bosa for the most in the league). In addition, he averages 13.5 sacks over his last 12 appearances.



<h2>Other lucrative extensions in Detroit</h2>



This move confirms the Lions’ commitment to rewarding their best players, having already handed lucrative extensions to multiple stars on their roster since 2024. Let’s take a look at recent extensions in Detroit:



<ul><li>Aidan Hutchinson: 4-years, $180M</li><li>Jared Goff: 4-years, $212M</li><li>Amon-Ra St. Brown: 4-years, $120.01M</li><li>Penei Sewell: 4-years, $112M</li><li>Jameson Williams: 3-years, $80M</li><li>Kerby Joseph: 4-years, $85M</li><li>Alim McNeill: 4-years, $97M</li><li>Taylor Decker: 3-years, $60M</li></ul>

It’s safe to say that Jerry Jones is not <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/micah-parsons" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Micah Parsons</a>’ favorite person. After being traded to the Green Bay Packers, the star pass rusher has taken another big shot at the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dallas-cowboys" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Dallas Cowboys</a> owner — this time over Trevon Diggs’ situation.



Earlier this year, the Cowboys traded Micah Parsons to the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/green-bay-packers" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Packers</a>. The defense lost its biggest star, but he’s not the only key piece this unit has been without.



<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/trevon-diggs" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Trevon Diggs</a> was recently placed on injured reserve, and his return this year is uncertain. Now, Micah Parsons has spoken about his former teammate, taking a jab at Jerry Jones over how he has handled the player’s health.



<h2>Micah Parsons talks about Trevon Diggs’ injury with big shot at Jerry Jones</h2>



When the Cowboys traded Micah Parsons to the Packers, everyone was shocked. The defense suffered a massive loss, but that wasn’t the only bad news to hit the unit this year.



Trevon Diggs missed most of the 2024 season due to a knee injury. He decided not to treat it with the team during the offseason, which led to a reduction in his salary. Against all odds, he played in Week 1 despite reports suggesting he was not at 100%.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nfl/cowboys-news-jerry-jones-breaks-silence-on-maxx-crosby-trey-hendrickson-rumors"></div>


He played the first six games of the season, but a concussion and an injury to his other knee have now landed him on injured reserve. Following these continuous health issues, Micah Parsons slammed the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/jerry-jones" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Jerry Jones</a> and Cowboys for mishandling Diggs’ situation.



“Honestly, I feel like they [expletive] my dog over, you know what I mean?” Parsons told Jori Epstein of Yahoo Sports. “He’s coming off a catastrophic knee injury and I just didn’t think they did right by him. He didn’t participate all camp and he’s going out there playing Week 1 and 2. I just don’t think you do that to a player like that…



“And the type of knee injury he had, they forced him out there. He has no reps really. He’s telling me he was in warmup phase during Week 1. Even with the ramp-up, I just feel like you just don’t do that.”



<h2>Will Trevon Diggs continue with the Cowboys in 2026?</h2>



Due to his health problems and the lack of guaranteed money left on his contract, many fans believe Trevon Diggs’ tenure with the Cowboys is over. However, owner Jerry Jones has shut down those rumors.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nfl/jerry-jones-reveals-if-cowboys-blowout-loss-to-broncos-has-changed-his-mind-before-trade-deadline"></div>


Jones said that he doesn’t believe Diggs has played his last game with the Cowboys. Nevertheless, his recovery will be key in determining whether the team decides to keep him or opt to release or trade him next offseason.

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/aaron-rodgers">Aaron Rodgers</a> will face a big challenge when the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/pittsburgh-steelers">Pittsburgh Steelers</a> take on the Green Bay Packers, especially with the arrival of Micah Parsons on Matt LaFleur’s team. 



The veteran quarterback has already dealt with another star pass rusher this season in Myles Garrett, although the Steelers’ offensive line dominated the Browns’ leader. Now, he hopes the story will repeat itself with Parsons.



“Well, I mean, he’s deployed maybe a little different because he moves around a little bit more than maybe Myles does. Again, those two are in the conversation of the very few players in the league that you actually have to have four hands on at all times. Playing against Micah before, he’s a phenomenal player. He’s a future Hall of Famer. He’s a game wrecker and you got to know where he’s at all the time.”



<h2>What did Packers trade for Micah Parsons?</h2>



The Packers traded two first-round picks (2026, 2027) and defensive tackle Kenny Clark in exchange for Micah Parsons. Furthermore, in a key move for the player, Green Bay gave him a four-year, $188 million contract extension with $120 million guaranteed.


 

 


The impact has been remarkable, as Parsons is one of the top players in the NFL at pressuring the quarterback, and the Packers’ defense as a whole excels at preventing explosive plays. Rodgers has taken notice.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nfl/nfl-news-aaron-rodgers-confirms-if-steelers-playing-against-packers-is-a-revenge-game"></div>


“They’re at the top of the league in least amount of explosive plays in the run game and the passing game. So, we got to take care of the football. We got to block up their rushers. It’s not just Micah. Rashan Gary is an elite pass rusher now. They got good guys inside. They have some younger guys to rush on the outside who can play as well. You got to be patient, you can’t turn the ball over and we got to block up front.”

The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/green-bay-packers" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Green Bay Packers</a> are facing the Arizona Cardinals this week and while teams are looking for a win, the Cheeseheads are looking for justice as they think Micah Parsons is not getting clear calls from the referees.



In fact, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/micah-parsons" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Parsons</a> didn’t hold back when speaking to the media. “There are parts that you hate, and the parts that the league lets go. You can tell how they call the games… We know what they’re trying to do. They want to load the points up so fans can be happy. They’ll call defensive holding, but they won’t call offensive holding. Let’s just wake up. It’s just one of those things that we know what the higher-ups is trying to do.“



Whether those words will cause a fine from the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NFL</a> or not remains to be seen but Parsons sounded off on refereeing. Parsons also accused the NFL on protecting the offense but not the defense. He advocated for a change of rules.



<h2>LaFleur also spoke on the matter</h2>



Reportedly, the Packers are “frustrated” over plenty of missed “blatant, egregious” holding penalties against Micah Parsons. Speaking to Ryan Wood of USA Today, head coach <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/matt-lafleur" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Matt LaFleur</a> said, “That’s definitely going to be a conversation [between him and refs] pregame,” regarding the situation.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20251016_BUS_510525_Matt-LaFleu-1024x576_614eb714.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=576" alt="Head coach Matt LaFleur of the Green Bay Packers" class="wp-image-309369" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure><figcaption>Head coach Matt LaFleur of the Green Bay Packers</figcaption></figure>



LaFleur is classy but does have a temper. You can only imagine that if he talks to the officials and a call is clearly missed, he will lose it. Parsons had an 11-game stretch last year where he didn’t get any holding calls. LaFleur clearly doesn’t want that to repeat this time around.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nfl/jordan-love-net-worth"></div>


<h2>Parsons should feast against the Cardinals</h2>



<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/arizona-cardinals" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Arizona</a> is the fifth-team with more sacks allowed this year in the NFL. Parsons should be salivating at the opportunity to make life a living hell for the opposing quarterback. 



Parsons has 2.5 sacks this year in five games played. However, he is rushing the quarterback as he has 8 QB hits. If the holdings were not happening, he might have even more sacks, but he has the opportunity to be a game-wrecker on Sunday.
