The Dallas Cowboys may not have made a huge splash in NFL free agency, but they found a way to make headlines for an unexpected reason
One of the longest-tenured members of the team, DeMarcus Lawrence, bolted for the Seattle Seahawks in free agency after landing a strong deal from the NFC squad.
Unfortunately, it appears there may be some bad blood between the two teammates.
Parsons called out Lawrence for comments about the team not winning a Super Bowl during his playing career, which he appeared to take offense to.
As a result, Lawrence fired back with another shot and doubled down on the team’s lack of success in the postseason.
Calling me a clown won’t change the fact that I told the truth. Maybe if you spent less time tweeting and more time winning, I wouldn’t have left.😈

“Calling me a clown won’t change the fact that I told the truth. Maybe if you spent less time tweeting and more time winning, I wouldn’t have left,” Lawrence responded.
Parsons has been called out by teammates in the past for off-field distractions centered around his podcast, and now, a seasoned vet is doing the same.

It’s an unfortunate turn after Lawrence’s loved tenure in Dallas, but social media can be a cruel game.
Hopefully the two men can work out their differences in a less public forum, but for now, it shows the culture in Dallas wasn’t as positive as the front office attempts to play off.
