Cowboys LB Micah Parsons called out the team’s front office and said that there needs to be a sense of urgency in order to get back to being a contender.
“The talent is there. We’ve just got to be aggressive the same way [other teams] did,” Parsons said, via PFT. “I don’t want to sit back and watch other [teams] build and build and us stay the same. Definitely some call to action. I want to see us become aggressive and get some players that will come in and make an impact. I want to see us bring back our own players. That’s just as important. Let’s see what we can do there.”
