Cowboys coach Brian Schottenheimer speaks out after Micah Parsons exit: 'Nothing has changed'

The Green Bay Packers traded Kenny Clark and two 1st-round picks for Micah Parsons, "stealing him" from the Dallas Cowboys according to Jason McIntyre. He discusses the Packers’ Super Bowl chances with their new superstar defensive end.

On Thursday, the Dallas Cowboys agreed to a trade that sent star pass rusher Micah Parsons to the Green Bay Packers, in what is expected to be an NFL-altering transaction.

Parsons was a key part of the Cowboys defense. Without him on the roster, many questioned how competitive Dallas would be in 2025. First-year Cowboys head coach Brian Schottenheimer sent a clear message about his belief in the team's goals entering the season.

Schottenheimer then responded to a question about the franchise's pursuit of a Vince Lombardi Trophy by suggesting it takes a team effort to win a championship.

"I would say Micah is an incredible player," Schottenheimer said. "Nobody disputes that. He's a great player, but this is the ultimate team game. It's the ultimate team game, and we're not going to win a championship with just one person."
