Dallas Cowboys linebacker Micah Parsons appears to have gotten into some beef with one of his teammates.

Cowboys safety Malik Hooker recently appeared on Keyshawn Johnson’s “All Facts No Breaks” podcast. Johnson asked Hooker how he felt about Parsons having his own podcast and posting episodes in the middle of the NFL season.

Hooker admitted that he was “not into that kind of stuff .” He also offered Parsons some advice about keeping his eyes on the prize (32:37 mark).

“My advice for Micah would be just make sure we’re all right,” Hooker said.

“Because if we’re at work and the run game’s terrible, but you’re doing a podcast every week … then what are you really caring about? Are you caring about the crowd that’s watching the podcast or are you caring about the success of our team and the Super Bowl that we’re trying to reach?”

Parsons took exception to Hooker’s comments. The 3-time Pro Bowler posted a now-deleted response and tagged Hooker on X.

“Just wish you said this to me but instead on some podcast!” Parsons wrote. “And you got my number family! @MalikHooker24 and you my locker mate! So you coulda [sic] said this any day! And you do realize I shoot the podcast on our off day! I why ain’t we talking about everyone preparations and focus.”

Parsons is far from the only athlete to host a podcast in the middle of a season. Look no further than 3-time Super Bowl winner Travis Kelce as the prime example.

If Parsons helps the Cowboys end their Super Bowl drought, nobody in the league would question his passion for podcasting.

But with Parsons being such a top-shelf talent on a Cowboys team that continues to underwhelm year after year, it’s no surprise that even some of his teammates question Parsons’ decisions.
