Cowboys’ Micah Parsons Sets Audacious Goal Amid Hall of Fame Weekend

The Pro Football Hall of Fame inducted its new members on Saturday, as the nine-person class of 2023 accepted their gold jackets. The induction ceremony can be motivational to aspiring football players, and even to current members of the NFL.

Cowboys pass rusher Micah Parsons was one player who was inspired by the weekend, so much so that he made a bold prediction on Saturday.

“When you talk about great careers, [when] you talk about the Hall of Fame, like I don't think I just want to make the Hall of Fame. I just want to be known as one of the greatest Hall of Famers,” Parsons said, via ESPN’s Todd Archer. “There’s categories to everything. There’s good. There’s great and there’s like, perfect...When you talk about me, I don’t want to just be mentioned in the Hall of Fame. Yeah, that's a great accolade, but I want to be one of the greatest in the Hall of Fame.”
