Micah Parsons is wasting no time making guarantees for this year.
The Dallas Cowboys linebacker sent out a message to the NFL world on Twitter about a big year in 2023 and his motivation seems to be Uncle Sam.
After seeing how much Uncle Sam took from taxes this year, the linebacker says he has more motivation than ever.
“I’m ’bout to have the year of my life!!” Parsons wrote on Twitter. “If I wasn’t hungry before!! Them taxes made me real hungry for sure!!”
Fortunately for Parsons, Texas has no income tax, so he gets to enjoy all the earnings he makes during home games.
Parsons played college football for Penn State and was considered one of the best defensive players in the country during his time there. In his sophomore year, Parsons was named a Consensus All-American and won the Big Ten Linebacker of the Year award.
