Love his free speech and confidence in speaking his mind but this is a strong accusation with a wide brush. He may have to add more context or pull it back a bit.

Shuddup, pouty chap and just play.
If you are hurt sit down and shuddup.
Grimsey flakes, this Micah is turning into a chatty katie!

This is just a side note and off topic but.... The more vocal Micah gets on social media the more I think Dallas should trade him while his value is about as high as it's going to get.

Don't get me wrong, aI love the player on the field but just have a feeling his comments are going to cause a lot of unnecessary drama someday soon

Trust me, bird chap, our Chatty Katie will walk it back.
He always does.
He spouts schlitz and then walks it back only to show a limited reasoning ability and, combined with few verbal skills, comes off as uninformed.

This is not really news, been this way for a long time. Brett Favre back in the day admitted he was addicted to pain killers because he knew he had to stay on the field or he would get replaced.

Think about it, do you honestly think guys with broken ribs, dislocated joints, sprained ankles, sprained knees, tendons or ligaments torn, and a host of other ailments could go out and play full speed tackle football for 3 hours every week, and sometimes even shorter rest than that, without getting "shot up"?

A lot of these guys are playing with injuries that the average adult would be in bed for weeks with........that aint happening without taking massively strong prescription pain killers and yes, most of those are very addictive.

I thought taking pain killers was a well known and accepted practice in the NFL for years.
Commentators have spoken about it freely for years.

Exactly..........I remember watching the game between the Rams and the Titans this year, my brother is a huge Titans fan, and Tanny got rolled up on pretty bad, like his entire ankle was pointed the wrong direction and he had to get carted off the field.

Dude came back out for the second half with about 30 rolls of tape on his ankle and the sideline reporter said "they shot up his ankle and taped it, so he is going to give it a go here in the second half."

The announcers were like, "ok, we will have to keep an eye on that and see if his mobility is affected any". Nobody seemed like they were trying to hide anything or cover anything up.

Pain meds used in the NFL?
Wait, let me go get my shocked face.

Lets be fair Micah it's a 17 game season with so much physical punishment that most (if not all) players are carrying injuries by Thanksgiving.

Welcome to the dark side.
Yep 2#1s heck if their high picks I'll take a 1st and 2nd.
I like the kid too but I'll take the top QB in next years draft.

Dumb fool is talking his way out of Dallas.

Jerry needs to start looking for trade suitors while Micah's value is still high, because this fool is not going to shut his mouth. Guaranteed.

Will Levis looks mighty fine as QB. He's a Josh Allen clone (6' 3.5", 230, 4.7 40, rocket arm, mobile).

The NFL is just like any other business they don't care if you are sick/hurt just show up for work.

So you will take a bust 2/3s of the time over Parsons? That is a weird decision to me.

Looks promising

Well, no I'll take a stud with my homework and put him into a system that fits him.
But seriously how can you pay Parsons, pay CBs, lbs, and a stud DT which we're missing?
Parsons is a GMs dream on a bad team, exciting player who'll put butts in the seats.
Give me your picks!!!

He definitely ain’t the sharpest tool in the box!!!

They need to double the size of the roster and guys can get healthy. Need to be able to swap players out when injured, hurting, out of breath.

I love #11 but growing tired of him and Twitter now may be ideal time to send him packing for a couple high picks
