SUMMARY
- ESPN's Bar Scott criticizes Dallas Cowboys linebacker Micah Parsons, calling him "the most sensitive guy" he has ever seen.
- Micah Parsons is known for his active presence on social media and has faced backlash for his comments.
ESPN’s Bar Scott inculpates the Cowboys linebacker Micah Parsons for being ‘the most sensitive‘ player in the team. He held no bars in criticizing the pass rusher for his conduct. Both parties have been in constant turmoil with each other. Days back Micah had called out the former Baltimore Ravens and the New York Jets linebacker for his opinions that he shared on social media.
Bar Scott now took a dig at him to reciprocate the hostility set by Micah Parsons in the past. He heavily criticized Micah Parsons for not taking up a leadership role in the team’s defense. His context of speaking was insinuating the Cowboys‘ loss against the Green Bay Packers on January 14, 2024. This defeat also inadvertently affected Parsons as it took him weeks to make a public appearance after him.

Scott said, “He is lacking leadership,” and further said that his personality is completely contrary to the position he plays which demands a lot of toughness. He further attacked the player by saying that he needed to be schooled in the domain of leadership. Until and unless he builds up this fundamental skill Parsons’ adept in the game will be futile for the team.

Micah had been in disagreement with Scott when he contradicted Scott at his controversial take almost a year back. Now the fight has beefed up when Scott made certain remarks on the player’s personality and advised him to stop being sensitive and comment on every topic on social media. The fight dates back to when Scott took the wrong side about the game that led to Damar Hamlin’s hospitalization.
