That&#8217;s my guy. He was always like a good mentor to me. But you know how it is. He always told me that if I ever faced him, it would be a great matchup, so I&#8217;m excited to see what he brings on Sunday.\n\nParsons intends to treat the match as just another one, although it will be his first time at AT&amp;T Stadium as a visitor.\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>I accepted my fate weeks ago, when the transfer happened. So, for me, it&#8217;s just about playing another game and just doing what I do best, and that is being a disruptive American football player. I think the media and the fans are trying to blow it out of proportion to make it something very big. But I just see it as another game at AT&amp;T.<\/p><cite>Micah Parsons<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\nA game that has been marked on everyone&#8217;s calendar, after Cowboys owner Jerry Jones traded Parsons to the Packers a week before the start of the NFL season, ending a long contractual dispute.\n\nThe Packers boosted their Super Bowl hopes with Parsons and made the 26-year-old player the highest-paid non-quarterback in NFL history by signing him to a four-year, $188 million contract, which includes $136 million guaranteed.\n\nThe Cowboys (1-2) have struggled without Parsons, especially on defense. They have allowed the third-most yards (397.7 per game), the most passing yards (288), and the sixth-most points (30.7).\n\n<p>Despite missing all of training camp and arriving in Green Bay a week before the first game, Parsons had an immediate impact on the defense in the 27-13 victory over the Detroit Lions, two-time NFC North defending champions, in Week 1. The Packers defeated the Washington Commanders 27-18 four days later. But the offense couldn&#8217;t get going in the 13-10 loss to the Cleveland Browns in Week 3.<\/p>\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>Besides the fans, teammates, support staff, I mean, they made this transition so great and I&#8217;m extremely honored and blessed to be with a group of such great guys who want to win and who just want to play football and I think we&#8217;ve been playing really good football so far, so that helps and I hope we continue like this.<\/p><cite>Micah Parsons<\/cite><\/blockquote>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Micah Parsons prepares for a bittersweet encounter against Dak Prescott.
