The 2021 Dallas Cowboys season began with hopes of a championship. But, they were eliminated in round one of the playoffs. The unfortunate end to the season was discussed by rookie linebacker Micah Parsons.
Parsons answered the question “I’m going remember that we lost in round one.”
Parsons’ mature response is impressive. Parsons could have raved about his year, especially considering he was the most successful defensive rookie in the NFL.
The Penn State graduate decided to take a moment to reflect on the Cowboys’ loss to the 49ers in the playoffs.
What will Micah Parsons remember most from this season?

Cowboys fans can expect to see a highly motivated Parsons next season.
Although this season did not end as Parsons hoped, it is a sign of his bright future. He had 84 combined tackles as a rookie and 30 quarterback hits. He also had 20 tackles for loss and 13 sacks.
Parsons will remain the Cowboys’ defensive focal point with Dan Quinn returning as defensive coordinator for at least one more year.
We will see if Parsons can take his game up to new heights by 2022.
