Micah Parsons Trade: Reaction to Blockbuster, What’s Next for Packers, Cowboys
- Blockbuster trade: the Cowboys sent Micah Parsons to the Packers for two first‑round picks (2026, 2027) and DT Kenny Clark — Parsons signed a four‑year, $188M deal with Green Bay.
- Cowboys’ defense just lost its cornerstone — Dallas could struggle in 2025 and will need youngsters like Donovan Ezeiruaku to step up.
- Packers instantly become a bigger NFC threat if Parsons and Jordan Love mesh, though Green Bay still has some offensive and roster questions to solve.
