Micah Parsons is not hiding his admiration for an NFC rival.
The Green Bay Packers superstar pass rusher, who is yet to make his 2026 season debut, recently spoke about the New York Giants following the NFC East squad’s big 28-20 win over his former team, the Dallas Cowboys, on Sunday at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, N.J.
“The Giants are going to be a really good team. From what they showed in the second half, they allowed the Cowboys to touch the football two times. Do you know how impressive that is?” the five-time Pro Bowler Parsons said on his “The Edge” podcast.

The former Penn State Nittany Lions star then praised Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart, who had an impressive start against Dallas.
“I think Jaxson Dart has elevated his game, his control. He’s showing people how smart he is, his intelligence at the line of scrimmage,” Parsons shared.
“That was as damn good as I’ve seen in the NFL, bro. I’m more excited about seeing what he does the rest of the year than about their team sets because they’re going to go as he goes.”
Dart threw for 230 yards and three touchdowns with zero interceptions on 23/29 completions against the Cowboys, as the Giants won their first game under new head coach John Harbaugh.
Parsons can only wish he could enjoy the same outcome for his team in Week 1.
Green Bay got smoked by the Minnesota Vikings, 39-22, at U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis, Minn., with Parsons unable to help his team as he continues to recover from his torn ACL injury.
