GREEN BAY, Wis. -- After Micah Parsons played 29 snaps in his debut with the Green Bay Packers on Sunday, coach Matt LaFleur said it was more than he had anticipated and joked that he would "investigate."

Turns out, all he needed to do was ask Parsons himself.

Parsons on Tuesday said he essentially talked his way into a bigger role in Sunday's 27-13 win over the Detroit Lions -- a game played 10 days after he arrived in Green Bay via trade from the Dallas Cowboys.
