Micah Parsons fired back at Eagles DB CJ Gardner Johnson after some controversial comments he made earlier in the week.
Micah Parsons Says Johnson Is in No Position to Talk
In his latest episode of "The Edge with Micah Parsons," the Cowboys defender took the time to respond to Johnson's postgame interview from the Eagles 15-12 victory over the New Orleans Saints.
"I don't know who C.J. Gardner-Johnson thinks he is bro," Parsons said. "We've been dealing with this cat for a while. I think Derek Carr has validated himself way before C.J. has ever done — in the most respectful way. Derek Carr was one the highest-paid quarterback, let's be real. Parsons went on to question Philadelhia's roster after their narrow victory, saying, "If you're barely beating a team and the score is 15-12, I mean, it probably says a lot right there."
During Sunday's postgame interview, Gardner-Johnson called the Saints "pretenders" and insinuated that quarterback Derek Carr was not too tall a task for their defense.
"We knew he [Carr] was gonna give us one all day," Gardner-Johnson said after Sunday's win. "We got the best defensive line, best secondary, best front seven in the league right now. And I'm popping it. I'm popping it because at the end of the day y'all said we was down and out last week. Now look at ya now."
Gardner-Johnson Responds to Parsons: "The League Knows Who I Am"
Gardner-Johnson took to X just hours later to respond to Parson's comments
"Fam, the league knows who I am (forget the narrative)," Gardner-Johnson posted. "You can check my track record and how I overcame a lot! Won a lot more playoff games than you, too my guy. We can watch film on your podcast from rookie year to now!!! If people don't know who I am."
