Micah Parsons trade creates headache Steelers fans didn’t see coming

The Pittsburgh Steelers were already dialed in on making a deep playoff run this season.

General Manager Omar Khan spent the offseason crafting a competitive, gritty, and aggressive roster — and fans have been buzzing with excitement since OTAs. But if the Steelers want to remain contenders, especially with a 41-year-old Aaron Rodgers under center, they’ll need to shift their focus toward a specific Week 8 challenge that just got a lot more intense: Micah Parsons.

In a stunning and unexpected move, Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones sent shockwaves through the NFL world by trading All-Pro edge rusher Micah Parsons to the Green Bay Packers.
