Dallas Cowboys linebacker Micah Parsons had agreed to be a weekly feature on the FS1 show Undisputed but after the team’s Week 1 loss, he was a no-show.
In August, FOX Sports and Undisputed announced that Parsons would join Skip Bayless and Shannon Sharpe on Tuesdays during the NFL season but on the first try, he nor the team was able to be reached.
Bayless went on the show and explained the situation as he knew it.
“We had equipment installed in Micah’s home in the Dallas area, and when we made the big, grand announcement he immediately tweeted about how excited he was to join us. Then yesterday came and all day we couldn’t reach Micah. Then, as it got to be evening, we couldn’t even reach any of his people,” Bayless told Sharpe.
“So, it led us to believe maybe he was just crushed by the opening night loss, which is highly possible,” Bayless teased. “We are still extremely hopeful that he will join us next Tuesday.”
“I was also looking forward to him joining,” said Sharpe. “He’s a phenomenal player and to get his insight into what transpired the Sunday before would’ve been great for us. But, maybe he wants to focus on football. Maybe the loss was more crushing to him than he thought it would be. I know it’s kind of difficult when you lose a ballgame. I know he thought they was going to be special this year, and they could still be special.”
