Big changes are happening in the NFL after Mika Parsons was traded to the Packers on Thursday afternoon, and the reactions have been quite something.
This unexpected move saw the Packers acquire two first-round picks along with Pro Bowl defensive tackle Kenny Clark and two All-Pro edge rushers heading to Green Bay.
The interactions between Ceedeelam and Jordan seem to reflect the mixed emotions swirling around both Cowboys Country and Packerland.
In the wake of the announcement, Lamb shared some emojis on his Instagram story, including one that showed a tear running down a face—possibly indicating his sadness about losing a teammate.
Lamb had been a strong advocate for Parsons to receive a contract commensurate with his value.
“You just pay the guy what you owe him. No additional explanation needed,” he wrote in a post on X earlier this month.
Meanwhile, in an Instagram response, the love felt almost palpable.
The Packers’ quarterback reacted by sharing graphics from ESPN about the trade, adding three flame emojis to his post.
In a remarkable moment, FS1’s “First Things First” aired just as the team learned about the trade. You could see Danny Perkins put his head in his hands as co-host Kevin Wiles paused the discussion to address the surprising news.
Former NFL player turned broadcaster Emmanuel Acho chimed in, suggesting that Jerry Jones would likely come to regret this trade, calling it one of the biggest blunders of his career.
“I hope someone drafts a player who turns out to be just like Mika Parsons,” he tweeted.
Parsons has already signed a new four-year deal with the Packers worth $188 million, with $135 million guaranteed.
