Dallas Cowboys Star Micah Parsons: “I Had Two Choices Either Football or Drug Dealing”

The Dallas Cowboys drafted Micah Parsons last year. Since he arrived in the league, he has set it on fire. He had transformed himself into one of the best defensive players in the league in his rookie season. The Cowboys fans are very excited to have him on their team. He himself has expressed his desire to stay with the Cowboys for the long term. However, his life before coming into the league wasn’t the same.

Recently, Micah tweeted out how he had only two options in his life growing up and how his perspective has changed since then.

Micah Parsons continued to talk about how his perspective has changed since getting into the league. He said, “I soon realized that there is so many revenues and avenues I coulda have taken to become wealthy! Due to connections and friends I have met!!…”

As seen by the tweet above, Micah Parsons is en route to becoming a better leader each day. It is a good sign for the Dallas Cowboys, as they are likely to have Parsons playing for them for a long time.

Parsons holds the Dallas defense together, and in just one year, he has become irreplicable for the Cowboys. He will look to contribute more in the upcoming season as the Cowboys will look to make a run toward the Super Bowl.

It will be a big season for the Cowboys. If they fail to perform well in the upcoming season, they might have to see a major roster shake-up.

Their quarterback Dak Prescott will be under the most pressure. He hasn’t been able to lead his team to success in the playoffs, and the Cowboys might look beyond him if he fails again in the upcoming season. Moreover, their division is getting stronger. Other teams have strengthened themselves while the Cowboys have yet to.
