Cowboys legend Michael Irvin blasts Jerry Jones over Micah Parsons trade
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.
Dallas Cowboys legend Michael Irvin appeared to be extremely unhappy with Jerry Jones over the decision to trade pass rusher Micah Parsons to the Green Bay Packers this week.
The deal was announced on Thursday with Dallas receiving two first-round picks and defensive lineman Kenny Clark in the trade. The move ended weeks of drama between Jones and Parsons over contract extension negotiations that never bore fruit. Parsons agreed to a long-term deal with the Packers as soon as the trade was completed.

Irvin said he was "in a state of shock" over the deal that sent Parsons to the Packers.
"In order for us to be right here, something had to go down that hurt Jerry personally to make this crazy, dumb move. … This is a gamble ‘The Gambler’ should not have taken in my personal opinion," he said on his YouTube page.
Parsons requested a trade on Aug. 1 when negotiations initially fell through. Jones said a trade wouldn’t occur and urged Cowboys fans not to lose sleep over the possibility. Parsons wanted his agent to be a part of the discussions but the sides never made any meaningful progress.
