Micah Parsons slams NFL's All-Pro list for snubbing him

There's no doubt in anyone's mind that Micah Parsons, the Dallas Cowboys' star linebacker, is one of the NFL's biggest defensive stars, and while his production has dipped a bit in recent weeks, he's had a season that has already landed him in the Pro Bowl Games, but not on a list that's even more elite: the All-Pro ones.

After the NFL Players Association released its All-Pro team, there is one notable absence that has already caused molstia in the player who was not selected: Parsons himself.

Parsons feels snubbed and expressed it on social media

Micah Parsons is quite active on social media, where he opines on almost any topic, and he used those same media to express his frustration at not being considered as an All-Pro.

Although he assures that his immediate objective is the game that Dallas has on Monday night when visiting Tampa Bay, Parsons wrote with sarcasm: "Man I'm in playoff mode, fu** that list! Congrats to those that made it tho! They deserve it!"

The NFLPA list is made based on a vote of all the players in the league, who, according to their release, are the ones who "decide who is truly the best at each position."

Players chose others over Parsons

"We compete against each other all season long, watching hours and hours of film week after week after week, and yet we have never had the opportunity to truly use our experience to select the best of us," the NFLPA said in a press release.

Players who voted selected San Francisco 49ers defensive wing Nick Bosa and Cleveland's Myles Garrett as the edge rushers over Parsons, who finished the regular season seventh in the league with 13.5 sacks, 65 total tackles and 14 tackles for loss.
