Last week, we saw rumors swirling on social media that the Green Bay Packers could be a potential landing spot for Dallas Cowboys EDGE Micah Parsons should the franchise entertain a trade for the All-Pro.
We know they won't, but let's play this thing out.
We know that the Cowboys have Micah under contract for the 2025 season, plus two franchise tags if they want to exercise, so a trade makes zero sense here.
Owner Jerry Jones stated Micah's trade request was "part of negotiations" but now, it does seem like there is a little more runway to this rumor.
Where there's smoke, there's fire?
If Micah and his representation are genuinely out on playing for Dallas and want a trade, then we can only imagine how that would be received by the front office, and as far as trading Micah to the Packers?
Do people really think the Cowboys would trade one of the best defensive players in football to a conference rival?
Yeah, no, that would be a quick phone call.
But our man Mike Fisher mentioned it last week. ...
I know #Cowboys fan’s hate this rumor. But … it’s not going away … https://t.co/lCg3pSF6N5

And now?
Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) predicts the Packers as a perfect trade destination for Micah Parsons.

Packers have money they can spend to give Parsons a new deal. They have young talent to send back.

It is worth pointing out that now, NFL Network's Ian Rapoport thinks the Packers would be a good landing spot for Parsons. This comes roughly a week after the initial "very serious" Packers offer for Micah.
While we still take all of this with a grain of salt, and fully believe that Parsons will sign on the dotted line ... eventually, the longer he goes unsigned, the more legs rumors like this get.
Are we completely shutting down the idea to the Packers? The NFL is a never say never business, so no we aren't.
But are we concerned Parsons won't have a star on his helmet in 2025?
Right now, no, but if Micah starts missing regular-season games, then I'll take this a little more seriously.
