When Dallas Cowboys star linebacker Micah Parsons recently said he’d rack up “5 sacks” if rapper Latto showed up to a game, the internet collectively said: “Say less.”
A Little Motivation Never Hurt
In what started as a lighthearted comment, Parsons admitted that Latto’s presence on the sideline would be all the fuel he needs to hit beast mode on the field. “I’m not gonna lie,” he said with a grin, letting fans know he’s only half joking—maybe even less than that.
The comment had fans spiraling, with one chiming in, “I don’t even play football, I might just get 12 myself.” Another summed it up best: “I don’t do celebrity crushes but Latto is the one exception.”
It’s safe to say, Latto’s effect? Game-changing. Literally.
Meanwhile, in the Front Office…
While Parsons is fantasizing about sideline cameos, the Cowboys front office is hard at work on something far more practical: locking him into a new contract. Team owner Jerry Jones recently confirmed an offer has been made—but no deal has been finalized yet.
Parsons, for his part, isn’t stressing. “My agent will call me once the deal is done,” he said at the Reliant Home Run Derby, adding that he still plans to show up for training camp. “I’ve gotta walk through it. I’m not so much of an iPad person… I’ll be there learning.”
Translation: contract or not, Parsons is lacing up.
The Bigger Picture
Between contract talks, home run swings, and light flirting with one of rap’s biggest names, Parsons is still laser-focused on the game. But let’s be real—if Latto ever pulls up to AT&T Stadium, you might want to hammer the over on Parsons’ stat line.
Cowboys, you’ve got the offer. You’ve got the talent. Now maybe all you need… is the invite.
