The Dallas Cowboys traded 4-time Pro Bowl edge rusher Micah Parsons to the Green Bay Packers.
The team from Texas will get 3-time Pro Bowl DT Kenny Clark and 2 1st-round draft selections.
Micah has signed a 4-year, 188 million dollar deal with Green Bay that features 120 million dollars fully guaranteed at inking and 136 million dollars in total guarantees as he became the highest-paid non-QB in league history.
Parsons wrote this after the news of him being traded: “I never wanted to play for another team, but it doesn’t depend on me. My heart has always been in Dallas, and that will continue. I want to be clear that I never made any demands. I never insisted on anything more than fairness. I only wanted the person I trust to negotiate my deal to be part of the procedure.”

Parsons could face his old team in Week 4 this campaign when the Packers will face the Cowboys in Texas on SNF.
The Cowboys’ owner, Jerry Jones, shared with the media that this trade was made for the organization to be successful in the postseason.
