The four-time Pro Bowler has been relentless since coming over from Dallas and Parsons highlighted his competitive edge after sharing that he didn't talk to his girlfriend for two days after losing to her in a board game.

"There was a time I was playing a game night with my girl. She went against me and I lost and I didn’t speak to her for about two days," Parsons said. "That mindset, I just hate to lose."

The former Cowboys star admitted that he never likes to be stopped on the field and always wants to challenge himself mentally to grow his game.

"I hate the feeling of someone beating me," Parsons said. "I hate the feeling of someone stopping me. We’re all tired. We all get tired, that’s normal. We all have injuries, challenges of what we got to go through to get ready for the game.

"I think those are normal, but what’s not normal and what I tried to develop is, the mentality of pushing when we’re tired, pushing when we’re hurt. It’s challenging but when you get into that space, you find a lot of room to grow in."

Following a lengthy contract holdout, Parsons was traded to the Packers in late August. The Pro Bowl DE signed a lucrative four-year, $188 million contract with Green Bay, the biggest contract for a non-quarterback in NFL history.

Pat McAfee shared intriguing opinion on Micah Parsons' Cowboys exit

NFL broadcaster Pat McAfee shared an interesting insight on the potential reason behind Micah Parsons' Cowboys exit at the start of the season in an episode of "The Pat McAfee Show" this week.

McAfee hinted that Parsons' podcast might've irked Cowboys owner Jerry Jones in the offseason.

"There was a lot of negative energy seemingly coming out of the podcast," McAfee said. "Not that guys shouldn't do podcasts. I had a podcast whenever I was live. I support players doing their thing. But it felt like, Micah was so good at football and the only negative was just coming out from this podcast."

In 10 starts this season, Parsons has tallied 10 sacks and is just four sacks away from matching his career-high, set in 2023 with Dallas.
