Micah Parsons is one of the faces of the Dallas Cowboys, but he was nearly a star for the Cowboys' division rival—the New York Giants. During a recent interview, Parsons revealed that he thought he was going to be a Giant during the 2021 NFL draft process. According to Parsons, the Giants said that they planned to draft Parsons if he was available at pick No. 11.

"The Giants lied to me. People don't know this, they told me, if I fell to 11 that they was gonna pick me," Parsons told Bryant McFadden of CBS Sports. "I swear. That's why I punish the Giants every time. It's personal when I play them."
