Dallas Cowboy Micah Parson was dismayed when he heard the Philadelphia Eagles had traded up to draft Georgia defensive tackle Jalen Carter.

The Eagles traded the No. 10 pick and a 2024 fourth-round pick to the Chicago Bears for the ninth pick.

Parsons lamented that Carter was a great addition to an already potent Eagles defensive line that led the NFL in sacks last year.

Parsons jokingly said he would walk off the set after the pick was announced.

Parsons was joined by Eagles’ wide receiver A.J. Brown who joked that Parsons should join the Eagles as well.
