Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love gave an honest effort to lure All-Pro Dallas Cowboys edge rusher Micah Parsons to join him this offseason.
There has been some reporting in recent days that the Cowboys may entertain offers for Parsons, who is already one of the premier pass rushers in the sport at the age of just 25. If that’s remotely true, general manager Brian Gutekunst and Green Bay are among the teams that should be trying most aggressively to land him.
Given the Packers’ inconsistent pass rush last season, infusing Parsons and his 52.5 sacks through his first four seasons, would immediately elevate Green Bay’s defense and potentially the franchise’s Super Bowl chances in the coming years.
Jordan Love Booed for Trying to Recruit Micah Parsons to Packers
Love made an appearance leading up to the Super Bowl on Parsons’ “The Edge” podcast, where he made his pitch for Parsons to come join the Packers. It didn’t go well.
“I mean, there’s a dude sitting right next to me. That’d be pretty cool,” Love said, when asked by Parsons if there was one player in the league he hopes would sign with the Packers. “That’d be pretty cool, no? You don’t think so? How you feel about that, what would your take be on coming to Green Bay?”
He was booed. Vociferously.

“Too many Cowboys fans in the audience. Too many Cowboys fans, my fault,” Love said.
In the process, Parsons seemed to shoot down the notion that he wants out from Dallas or that the Cowboys will wind up dealing him.
“I’m in one of those Druski 360 deals, you feel me? I’m a for-lifer. I can’t go nowhere,” Parsons said. “Me and Jerry Jones done talked — that’s my dawg.”
It remains to be seen whether the feeling is mutual for Jones and the Cowboys, but Parsons didn’t take the bait from Love.
