Moments before Parsons trade, Michael Irvin issued viral ‘guarantee’

The Dallas Cowboys and Green Bay Packers reached an agreement on a blockbuster trade Thursday involving Micah Parsons.

The Cowboys will send Parsons, a 26-year-old star pass rusher who recorded 52.5 sacks during his four seasons in Dallas, to the Packers. In return, Dallas will receive two future draft picks along with veteran defensive lineman Kenny Clark.

However, just moments before the deal was announced Cowboys legend and Hall of Famer Michael Irvin was on live television publicly declaring that no trade involving Parsons would take place.

‘I guarantee Micah Parsons is not going anywhere,’ Irvin declared.

The NFL on ESPN’s X post about Irvin’s comments was made at 4:59 p.m. ET. Ian Rapoport reported the trade just one minute later, at 5:00 p.m. In less than a minute, Irvin’s confident ‘guarantee’ became one of the coldest takes in history.

In Irvin’s defense, ESPN’s post on X may have been one minute before the trade was first reported, but the ‘NFL Live’ segment could have been aired earlier. And many expected Parsons to agree to an extension, rather than being shipped out of Dallas.

Parsons was seeking a new contract and got one with the Packers, agreeing to a four-year, $188 million extension deal with Green Bay, including $136 million guaranteed, making him the new highest-paid non-quarterback in NFL history.

Either way, Irvin’s bold statement became a viral moment in the latest Earth-shattering moment across the NFL.
