EXCLUSIVE: Micah had some choice words for now former Cowboys DE DeMarcus Lawrence after he spoke down on the Cowboys in a recent interview

Not since the 1995 season have the Dallas Cowboys hoisted a Lombardi Trophy.

That, of course, includes the duration of Demarcus Lawrence’s 11 seasons with Big D, in which he delivered 61.5 sacks and was voted to four Pro Bowls.

Having signed with the Seattle Seahawks, Lawrence believes a Super Bowl is in reach for him now, a goal he thinks would have been unreachable had he re-signed with the Cowboys.

New Seahawks DE Demarcus Lawrence on leaving Dallas: 'I know for sure I'm  not going to win a Super Bowl there'

“Change of scenery is always good, but Dallas is my home,” Lawrence said Thursday in an interview with Hawk Blogger. “Made my home there, my family lives there. I’m forever gonna be there, but I know for sure I’m not going to win a Super Bowl there. So, yeah … we here.”

Though Lawrence arrived Thursday to officially sign his three-year pact with the Seahawks, he definitely left a parting shot for the Cowboys.

It was one that quickly spread across social media and drew the ire of now-former teammate Micah Parsons, who called it “clown s—.”

Lawrence didn’t take long to respond, casting shade on Parsons, whose podcast and social media presence have been called into question at times.

“Calling me a clown won’t change the fact that I told the truth,” Lawrence wrote. “Maybe if you spent less time tweeting and more time winning, I wouldn’t have left.”

A wreaker of havoc off the edge and a locker room leader for more than a decade in Dallas, Lawrence played in nine playoff games with just three wild-card wins to show for his troubles.

The Cowboys are still looking to advance past the Divisional Round for the first time since their last Super Bowl win, which was led by a collection of talent that’s long had busts in the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

Both the Seahawks and Cowboys are coming off postseason-less campaigns, but Lawrence has made it clear he views Seattle as being an option that will put him closer to postseason success.

The 32-year-old’s final season in Dallas was an unceremonious exit as he played in only four games due to a Lisfranc injury.

He’ll look to put his best foot forward in 2025 as an added piece to a talent-heavy Seahawks D-line.

“I still have a lot left in the tank, I definitely didn’t want to kick the bucket too soon,” Lawrence said of his decision to keep playing.

Cowboys executive vice president Stephen Jones spoke on Lawrence in February at the NFL Scouting Combine and hinted that Lawrence might be retiring, while also plotting out the organization’s offseason plan to be “selectively aggressive.” Obviously, Lawrence didn’t retire, and the determining reason was simply Lawrence feeling wanted as free agency opened up.

“I think the deciding factor was, shoot, a couple days ago,” he said, “just these opportunities coming around, people still believe in my type of ball, people still want to see me out there on the field. If that’s what they want, give it to them.”

A major factor in Lawrence landing in Seattle was its defensive coordinator, Aden Durde. Durde was the Cowboys’ defensive line coach from 2021-2023. The pass rusher is of the mind that Durde can bring the best out of him during what’s likely to be the final run of his career.

“In all honestly, most likely not,” Lawrence said when asked if he’d be a Seahawk without Durde, “just because I know his style, his system, what he’s expecting from me. I know he can help me get back to the D-Law everybody knows.”

Durde offers some comfort and familiarity for Lawrence. However, it’s a big change, just in geography, as D-Law travels from Texas to the Pacific Northwest.

“The main difference, as you can see, is it’s cold,” Lawrence laughed.

And of course, the other big one, in his mind, are the chances of winning a Super Bowl.
