"'I looked on that wall and I saw Brett Favre, I saw Reggie [White], I saw all those legends, and I was like I've got to be there,' Parsons said."
"I just looked at him like somebody who won, said Parsons, who marveled at the outrageous statistics White compiled. I think I can do that, too. I think I can do anything I put my mind to."
"I just know from having to game plan against him, that is something that keeps you up at night when you're going against a player of his caliber, Packers coach Matt LaFleur said."
Micah Parsons endured a four-month contract stalemate that threatened to stretch into the season before he was traded from the Dallas Cowboys to the Green Bay Packers. The Packers sent two first-round picks and three-time Pro Bowl defensive tackle Kenny Clark to Dallas and signed Parsons to a four-year, $188 million contract with $136 million guaranteed. Parsons has 52.5 career sacks and at least 12 sacks in each of his four seasons, providing Green Bay with a premier pass rusher and added star power. Parsons plans to wear No. 1 and cited Packers legends as inspiration.
