Micah Parsons isn’t your regular NFL big man and pass rusher. The 2021 Defensive Rookie of the Year is also deceivingly fast. One person who witnessed that first-hand during this year’s Pro Bowl action was Miami Dolphins wideout Tyreek Hill. Hill, who claimed to be the fastest NFL player, didn’t even come close to Micah Parsons in the 2023 Fastest Man Pro Bowl race. And looks like the Cheetah is still pretty salty about it.
The Dallas Cowboys linebacker and the ex-Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver had a hilarious back-and-forth on Twitter. However, more than a rekindling of the past 40-yard dash rivalry, this was about the upcoming 2023 fixture between the two sides. Tyreek decided to mock Micah’s preparations and Parsons vowed to take his anger out on someone close to the Cheetah.

Ever since losing to the San Francisco 49ers in the 2022-23 playoffs, Micah Parsons has spent his offseason getting bigger. Recently the 23-year-old outside linebacker shared a post on Twitter thanking former Cincinnati Bengals tackle Andrew Whitworth for helping him size-train and grow. “We will only grow from those who have accomplished what we seek,” Parsons captioned the tweet. Well, the Cheetah had a problem with the tone.
“So now, you motivational speaker? I’m confused,” Hill retweeted. That is when the mayhem ensued.

Micah loved the trash-talking from Hill. Especially after the NFL released the team schedules this week. The Dolphins and the Cowboys are slated to face off on Christmas Eve. And Parsons had an ominous warning for Hill and his quarterback, Tua Tagovailoa. The latter has already had his share of concussion protocol worries. Now, Parsons has compounded the problems even more for the Fins QB1.

“Yeah! Keep up with them Twitter fingers. The only person who will pay is Tua!!! I’ll see you on Christmas Eve!! There is only going to be one Grinch who stole Christmas,” Parsons left his warning for the Dolphins.
The Cheetah revealed the true reason for going after Parsons
The to-and-fro didn’t stop there. In response to Parson’s aggressive threat against his quarterback, Hill replied, saying, “Now you are angry cause you dress like method man.” This prompted the Cowboys star to hit back. “Cheetah is just mad Kansas City is thriving without him and he is trying to bring Cowboys Nation down with him!! He’s never been the same since he’s been in Miami! He’s started losing his mind! Maybe it’s the Heat,” Parsons said, getting in an NBA joke in the mix. Get it?
Tyreek Hill finally revealed that the Pro Bowl race loss was still at the back of his mind. “Yes, I’m still salty that Micah beat me in a race,” he tweeted before finally throwing in the towel. “You win, bro,” Cheetah finally succumbed.
