Micah Parsons broke his silence for the first time since the Dallas Cowboys‘ Wild Card loss to the Green Bay Packers.
Parsons spoke on his podcast “The Edge” on Bleacher Report in a live stream with special guest Eagles RB D’Andre Swift.
The two discussed various topics, but all eyes were on Parsons as this was the first time he spoke since the Cowboys’ early playoff exit.

But on Wednesday, Parsons spoke on “The Edge” about this entire encounter.
Parsons said Bayless is an example of a media personality that says what they want just because they can.
“Skip, I’ve never once asked you to hype me up or do anything like that,” said Parsons, adding, “You did that because you saw what I was doing on the field.”
The edge rusher said Bayless had asked him to go on his show “Undisputed,” but he said he turned it down for several reasons.

“I wanted to do my own route because of your bad ties and who you are. I did not want to be partnered with you, and that’s just point blank, simple,” said Parsons.

The Cowboys’ star went on to say that Bayless can continue to drive any narrative he wants.
Parsons also addressed the Cowboys’ playoff loss that perpetrated Bayless’ post, saying it was “completely embarrassing and unacceptable.”
He also admitted showing his face in public took him a while following the loss.
