Dallas star linebacker Micah Parsons, who's entering the final season of his rookie deal, said, "Losing a great coach like Mike hurts."

Dallas Cowboys All-Pro pass rusher Micah Parsons called the decision to part with head coach Mike McCarthy "devastating." Parsons said on "The Edge" podcast this week he was not expecting Dallas and McCarthy to go separate ways after five seasons.

When discussing the recent coaching shakeup on his “The Edge with Micah Parsons” podcast, the star linebacker expressed it’s “very sad” to see McCarthy, 61, leave due to the relationships cultivated over the past few years while previewing what’s expected to be an “interesting” offseason in Dallas.
