Micah Parsons’ podcast is stirring up controversy again. The Dallas Cowboys’ star pass rusher received criticism from teammate Malik Hooker this offseason over his podcast, The Edge with Micah Parsons. While the two have since reconciled, Parsons may now be facing a new issue.
Parsons recently hosted teammate Trevon Diggs on the show, where they discussed the top 10 quarterbacks in the NFL. Surprisingly, Dak Prescott, their own teammate and the holder of the NFL’s most lucrative contract, didn’t make the cut.
The topic came up as Parsons and Diggs praised Jayden Daniels, quarterback for the Washington Commanders. Cowboys fans likely disliked hearing them rave about an NFC East rival and likely took issue with their choice of Jalen Hurts of the Philadelphia Eagles as well.
Weird: #Cowboys CB Trevon Diggs and Micah Parsons list their Top 8 QBs in the NFL and leave out Dak Prescott.
Extremely disrespectful.

Their list included Daniels, Hurts, Patrick Mahomes, Lamar Jackson, Jared Goff, Josh Allen, Matthew Stafford, and Sam Darnold. Once again, no mention of Prescott.
It’s tough to argue entirely against their decision, considering Prescott’s struggles this season. After finishing as the MVP runner-up, Prescott has completed 63.7% of his passes, with 10 touchdowns and eight interceptions. He has thrown two picks in each of the last three games.
Despite his struggles, it still raises eyebrows that his teammates are so willing to overlook him.
