Micah Parsons couldn’t help but enjoy the moment following the Green Bay Packers’ 27-23 rally over the Arizona Cardinals, dropping a lighthearted comment that appeared to take a playful shot at Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones.

“Yeah, in the run game, yeah. So I’m pretty decent in the run game,” Parsons said when asked about his blocking and edge-setting responsibilities, according to Matt Schneidman of The Athletic. The comment, though brief, carried some weight considering his recent exchanges with Jerry Jones and the Cowboys. It was a sharp, well-timed response that resonated in a locker room still energized by his first three-sack performance as a member of the Packers.
One of the reasons Jerry Jones cited for the Cowboys’ unexpected decision to send Micah Parsons to the Green Bay Packers was the team’s need to strengthen its run defense. In return for Parsons, Dallas received two first-round picks and veteran defensive lineman Kenny Clark, a move Jones believed would give the Cowboys a better chance to shore up that area.

Parsons clearly hasn’t let those remarks fade from memory. On Sunday, he put together a dominant showing with three sacks, repeatedly breaking through the line and disrupting plays as Green Bay mounted its comeback. His relentless pressure threw Arizona’s offense off balance, forcing errors and slowing down Jacoby Brissett’s rhythm. Parsons’ three sacks led all players in the game.
The Packers rally came to life in the closing minutes as the offense finally found its rhythm. Josh Jacobs powered in two touchdowns, including the decisive 1-yard run with less than two minutes remaining, while Jordan Love completed 19 of 29 passes for 179 yards and a score to lead the surge. The defense, anchored by Parsons, held strong in the final stretch to seal the win and push the Packers’ record to 4-1-1.

The Packers relied on a stout defense and a late offensive rally to claim a road victory over the Cardinals, keeping their momentum going.
Earlier in the season, Parsons had sparred verbally with Jerry Jones, and his postgame comment on Sunday was widely interpreted as another pointed dig at the Cowboys owner who helped build the team Parsons once played for.
