Micah Parsons Refuses to Back Eagles Despite Cowboys' Slim Playoff Hopes

The Cowboys linebacker expressed disdain for Philadelphia, even though an Eagles win could help Dallas remain in the postseason race.

  • Dallas Cowboys linebacker Micah Parsons stated he will not root for the Philadelphia Eagles in their Week 16 game against the Washington Commanders, despite an Eagles win being critical for the Cowboys' playoff chances.
  • Parsons, a Harrisburg native and former Eagles fan, cited growing animosity toward Philadelphia and its fans as the reason for his stance, using strong language to express his frustration.
  • The Cowboys have only a 1% chance of making the playoffs, requiring both a win against the Buccaneers and a Commanders loss to the Eagles to stay in contention.
  • Parsons has had a tumultuous season, marked by injuries, team struggles, and public criticism of Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy following a loss to the Eagles earlier this year.
  • The Cowboys are set to face the Eagles again in Week 17, a matchup that Parsons is already anticipating as tensions between the two NFC East rivals continue to escalate.
