Earlier this week, Dallas Cowboys linebacker Micah Parsons met Los Angeles Angels star Mike Trout. The reigning NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year walked away from their encounter with a souvenir.
Parsons received a signed bat from Trout. The bat has a hilarious message on it regarding Trout’s favorite NFL team.
Trout, a Philadelphia Eagles fan, wrote the following message on the bat: “Take it easy on my Birds!”
Parsons shared a photo of him next to Trout on his Twitter account along with a brief story.
“He [Mike Trout] told he is an Eagles guy!! But I told him the Cowboys Nation would turn him over,” Parsons wrote on Twitter. “He gifted me a sick bat after he cranked his 10th homer!! All good though we even now!”
Last season, Parsons had four tackles, 0.5 sacks and a pass defended in Week 3 against the Eagles. He missed the regular-season finale against them due to COVID-19 protocols.
We highly doubt Parsons will “take it easy” on Trout’s Eagles this fall.
