Cowboys star Micah Parsons is now clarifying his controversial comments regarding Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts’s chances of being named MVP this season.
While speaking to media on Thursday, Parsons didn’t take back anything that he said, but he wanted to make sure people know that he just wanted to champion the defensive players on the Eagles and not just the quarterback or offense as a whole.
“I mean you’ve got to stand on everything you say just as a man,” Parsons said, via ESPN. “Obviously, they small clipped it and took one line of what was really talked about. No pun intended or no disrespect to Hurts. I think he’s doing great this year. But, you know me, I’m a defensive guy, and I said the Eagles defense is the team to watch. They have helluva players over there, making plays all year. From a defensive aspect, I know how offensive guys get all the credit, so I just want to stick up for the defensive guys.”
