Packers’ Micah Parsons hilariously celebrates $188 million contract after stunning trade

Cowboys Head Coach Makes Decision On Micah Parsons After Friday Antics -  Yahoo Sports

With a trade that dominated headlines, thrilling and frustrating fans of both the Green Bay Packers and the Dallas Cowboysreactions across the sports world continue to pour in after Micah Parsons chose to join the Packers.

But no celebration stood out more than Parsons’ own, as he appeared in a video running around his home, excited not only about joining Green Bay but also shouting, “I’m richer than I’ve ever been!” While the moment captured his joy, plenty of fans weren’t impressed, flooding X with critical replies.

 

He wasn’t the only one to react. Golden State Warriors power forward Draymond Green chimed in with his own take on the blockbuster move. “Wow!!! Jerry didn’t want to pay the money! Good Bag Micah,” Green said, according to X post.

Even so, the tone from the Dallas Cowboys’ front office sounded far less celebratory. Owner Jerry Jones framed the trade as a calculated step toward reshaping the team for a playoff push.

“This was a move to make us successful in the playoffs and stop the run,” Jones said, according to Jon Machota X post.

After four seasons in Dallas, Parsons departs with 256 tackles, 63 tackles for loss, 52.5 sacks, nine forced fumbles, nine pass deflections, and four fumble recoveries in 63 appearances.

BREAKING: Packers Officially Sign Veteran WR 3 Hours After Surprise Seahawks Release
Green Bay, WI — The Green Bay Packers made a bold late-August move, pouncing just hours after a surprise roster cut in Seattle freed up a proven deep threat. With Christian Watson managing hamstring issues and Jayden Reed still limited in camp, Matt LaFleur’s offense needed another reliable target for Jordan Love — and the front office wasted no time. That player is Marquez Valdes-Scantling, the 30-year-old veteran released by the Seahawks on August 26. Within three hours, Green Bay struck, reuniting with a familiar face after edging out interest from Kansas City and Pittsburgh. Valdes-Scantling is no stranger to Titletown. Drafted by the Packers in 2018, he spent four seasons in Green Bay, piling up highlight-reel deep balls and posting a league-leading yards-per-catch average in 2020. Across seven NFL seasons, he’s totaled 205 receptions, 3,566 yards, and 20 touchdowns. 🚨 BREAKING: The Packers are signing veteran WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling 🚨Valdes-Scantling, 30, was released by the Seahawks on Tuesday.In 2024, he posted 19 catches for 411 yards and 4 touchdowns. His playoff résumé is just as important. MVS owns 24 postseason receptions for 406 yards and five touchdowns — including a clutch score in Super Bowl LVIII with Kansas City, where he helped secure back-to-back championships. After brief stints with Buffalo and New Orleans in 2024, he reignited his value with the Saints, delivering 385 yards and four touchdowns, highlighted by a two-score explosion against Atlanta. Seattle signed him earlier this spring, but roster depth and a youth movement forced him off the team during final cuts. That quick release instantly made him one of the most attractive free agents available. For the Packers, the signing is both sentimental and strategic. Bringing back a trusted weapon who knows Lambeau’s frozen tundra gives Jordan Love a vertical threat and leadership presence, bolstering an already intriguing offense. Green Bay fans have seen Valdes-Scantling shine here before — and now he’s back, with one mission: help the Packers chase another Lombardi Trophy.
