Dallas Cowboys linebacker Micah Parsons isn't one to shy away from commenting on current events. On Sunday morning, he posted a tweet seemingly aimed at the events surrounding NBA star Ja Morant.

The Memphis Grizzlies announced on Sunday morning that they had suspended Ja Morant from all team activities until further notice following a new video showing Morant with a gun. This comes just a few months after Morant was suspended by the NBA for a video showing him in a nightclub in Denver with a gun.

After the video surfaced, some of the biggest names in sports commented on the situation. Micah Parsons tweeted that a small friend circle will be your "cellmates for success." He added that choosing the right crowd is important.

"Your small friend circle can be your cellmates to your success! Choose your crowd wisely!"

How the latest incident affects Morant's offseason training remains to be seen.


Micah Parsons worked out with Andrew Whitworth

Micah Parsons recently posted a photo of himself and retired Super Bowl champion Andrew Whitworth. Parsons noted that he trained with Whitworth and thanked him for helping him to become a better player.

Whitworth later shared on The Rich Eisen Show that the Cowboys linebacker contacted him and asked if he would be interested in going down to Texas to train with him.

"Hey man, would you have any interest in coming down when I train and working with me? I have the mentality that I want to practice against somebody who's really elite at being my opponent. And, I want to get, what's that feedback from that person?" Micah Parsons said to Andrew Whitworth

Whitworth said the 24-year-old told him that while he could train against defensive line coaches and other players, he wanted to actually train against someone elite.

After winning Defensive Rookie of the Year in 2021, Parsons improved even further in his second season. Clearly, he plans on exceeding expectations again in the coming season.
