A week later, the wideout shared his thoughts with reporters, demonstrating that he wasn't pleased with this situation.

“I feel like he’s (Parsons) gonna be here,” Lamb told John Machota of The Athletic. "Reaction was crazy. A little disappointed (in the process). But it is what it is. You gotta do what you gotta do and he’s gotta do what’s best for him and his family.”

After a four-year relationship, the Dallas Cowboys and Micah Parsons are heading their separate ways, but just like Lamb, many are unhappy about the way the team handled this situation.
