Micah Parsons fires right back at teammate Malik Hooker

You just knew he would respond!

Dallas Cowboys safety called out defensive teammate Micah Parsons, stating that he needs to spend more time working on his game rather than focusing on his podcast, “The Edge with Micah Parsons". 

“My advice for Micah would be just make sure we’re all right,” Hooker said on Keyshawn Johnson’s podcast. “Because if we’re at work and and the run game’s terrible, but you’re doing a podcast every week and you know the run game is terrible, then what are you really caring about? Are you caring about the crowd that was watching the podcast or are you caring about the success of our team and the Super Bowl that we’re trying to reach?”

And naturally, Parsons has a response. 

In a now-deleted post, Parsons expressed his disappointment over not being called on the phone by Hooker rather than called out publicly: 

“Just wish you said this to me but instead on some podcast! And you got my number family! @MalikHooker24 and you my locker mate!” Parsons wrote, via the Dallas Morning News. “So you coulda said this any day! And you do realize I shoot the podcast on our off day! Why ain’t we talking about everyone preparations and focus.”

Is this drama between teammates going to be a problem with Training Camp on the horizon for the Cowboys?
