Micha Parson Responds to Rodney Harrison
The Cowboys star defended Wilson saying, “To me that’s a fraudulent move… Zach Wilson is special in his own way. You can’t sit here and say, you look at the tape and he’s garbage, like… you can say he’s not Mahomes tier but you can’t say he’s not a good quarterback, he’s a starting quarterback in the NFL.”
Parsons then gave Zach Wilson some motivational words of encouragement saying, “I hope you win, I hope you grow into the player no one thinks you can grow into.”

Zach Wilson’s Best Game
On Sunday Night Football, Zach Wilson had one of the best games of his career, going for 245 passing yards and two touchdowns. Not the greatest stat line in the world, but certainly a big improvement for the young quarterback. Although the Jets fell to the Chiefs 23-20, Wilson was able to keep his team in the game, bringing a new sense of confidence to Jets’ fans.
The comments that Rodney Harrison made are very unprofessional, and has since apologized after the backlash he received. The New York Jets head coach Robert Saleh said that Harrison, “Handled things the right way this morning.”
