Dallas Cowboys linebacker Micah Parsons has been trying to get his hands on a signed Tom Brady jersey for quite some time. After a run-in with the legendary quarterback at Fanatics Fest, Parsons finally received the gift he had been waiting for this week.
Brady took the time to sign a jersey with a personal message for Parsons and mailed it to him. Parsons posted a video of his reaction to opening the packaged jersey. He was clearly excited after receiving rare memorabilia from the greatest quarterback of all time.
'It finally came in, not five times ago, but today ya'll," said Parsons. "We got that vintage Brady, ya'll. I appreciate you, Tom. Thank you for looking out for the young bull. LFG. See you on Sundays, man. I can't tell you how much this mean to me, Tom."
This is a great reminder that NFL players are fans just like us.
Parsons is known for his jersey collection, and this is certainly a special one to add to the group. He now has a signed jersey from a seven-time Super Bowl-winning quarterback with more championships than any single franchise in the NFL.

Some NFL players are excited about Olympic flag football. Others? Not so much.
Editor's note: This story is a part of a series by USA TODAY Sports called Project: June. We will publish at least one NFL-themed story every day throughout the month because fans know the league truly never sleeps. The idea of NFL players taking on the world in flag football just sounds cool, right? Players like Vikings star receiver Justin Jefferson loves the idea. He called it a "dream" in fact. And that's how it's been portrayed throughout much of the media since it was decided NFL players will take part in the 2028 Olympics in flag football. This is a great thing. Players are jacked. Let's go kick some flag football butt, America! But what if players aren't actually all that excited to be flag football Olympians? There was a recent extremely under-reported remark from Bengals star receiver Ja'Marr Chase. He was asked about flag football and maybe spoke for more players than people want to acknowledge. "I don't know how I feel about it, if I'm being completely honest,' Chase said, via WPCO's Marshall Kramsky. 'I want to know the timing for us, offseason, in-season. I want to know if we're getting paid. I want to know where we traveling every other week or every day, like all that plays a part, because we have an offseason, we have a life. Also, how long would that be? I don't know. There's a lot of questions to it." The key part of that quote: We have an offseason, we have a life. This doesn't mean that there are players who aren't excited about participating in the Olympics. There are and will be. It does mean there will be players who don't see the same level of excitement about it the league office and fans have. When Kansas City quarterback Patrick Mahomes was asked about Olympic flag football, he went all Roger Murtaugh from "Lethal Weapon:" 'I'll probably leave that to the younger guys. I'll be a little older by the time that thing comes around.' Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford just openly cracked up when asked about the Olympics. "You talking about coaching, or what?" he joked. Speaking of coaches, Denver's Sean Payton has been talked about as someone who could lead the team. On June 6 he asked about the possibility of coaching the flag team and he was, well, noncommittal. For now. 'I don't want to answer questions in 2028 when I'm focused on Friday,' Payton said, laughing. In part, what you're seeing, I believe, is that some players (and others) don't see flag football as a vital thing to do. Or at least not on the level of, say, Olympic basketball. The world had caught up to us in hoops (and even surpassed America) mandating the arrival of the Dream Team. Basketball was our game, not the world's, and we had to retake the sport from the clutches of others. That's not the case with flag football. There's no nationwide call to beat everyone in flag football. There's also no need for people to dive into this now. It's three years away. You also hear in Chase's remarks the union and labor part of this. Players know the NFL will find a way to make tons of cash off of this, and Chase, understandably, wants to make sure players get their share. I respect him for that. Again, others will get into the flag football groove. There's no question about that. 'I feel like it's always an honor to play for your country,' Falcons running back Bijon Robinson told Cory Muse of KVUE. 'Like, you always want to play for your country. I would love to show my skillset on that type of stage. 'So, I think it's going to come down to our schedule and where it lies, and if the teams even let us go. But I would love to play if given the opportunity. We'll see. I don't want it to affect my team and what we've got going here.' 'Yeah, I think it's great," Rams coach Sean McVay recently told reporters. "I think that is so far away from me. Coaching years are dog years, you know that. You hear Justin Jefferson come out and talk about, 'Man, that would be really cool.' That's awesome. Like I think you give guys the opportunity to say, 'Alright, well what's your preference on it?' And I think whatever our guys are…there's going to be the availability for maybe one guy on each team to be able to do that. "And if that's something that players say they want to be able to do, then I think it's a really cool experience for them to be able to be a part of while also acknowledging that man, there are some other guys that have been doing it. I'm not going to pretend to understand the nuances tactically and what that game entails, but I think it's good. I think it's great.' There's definitely that sentiment out there. Still, there could be a lot more complexity to this flag football story than we know.

Cowboys Headlines: Dak Prescott's 'Hail Mary' putt, Arch Manning rumors, run resurgence?
how well does the o-line know tyler trivia 🧐@Tee_sizzle_ | @TylerGuyton14 | @iamtylerbooker Dak Prescott has given fans his first long-distance highlight of the year, but this one came on the golf course. We've got the story of his monster putt coming up a little deeper in this recap of the day's Cowboys headlines, along with an interesting twist in the Arch Manning-to-Dallas conspiracy theory that won't be going away anytime soon. But we start with the ground game and a simple question: just how run-heavy will Brian Schottenheimer really get this season? The answer could, in part, depend on what one intriguing rookie does; we'll explain why Jaydon Blue's "red flags" could actually be the best thing he has going for him in the pros. Elsewhere, George Pickens has enraged his old Pittsburgh fanbase one final time; we'll share the reason he bailed on his own youth football camp and why Cowboys fans should be fine with it. Also, we've got D-line rankings, a look at O-line depth, a possibility to watch at cornerback later this summer, and the inspiring story of the most unlikely rookie the Cowboys will have in camp. All that, plus the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders continue their recent hot streak by stepping into the spotlight on late-night's biggest stage. How run heavy will Dallas really be? :: The Mothership Link Brian Schottenheimer has made it abundantly clear the Cowboys' offense will lean heavily on the rushing attack going forward. But the trio of Dak Prescott, CeeDee Lamb, and George Pickens have the capability to deploy a high-octane passing game. Heavier on the run than in recent years? Almost certainly (which will also help the play-action to be taken seriously), but don't expect a return to DeMarco Murray-esque levels of 30 carries per contest. Cowboys rookie's red flags could be the reason he becomes phenomenal as a pro :: Cowboys Wire Link If some scouts thought Jaydon Blue showed an impatient running style at Texas and a prioritization of big plays over ball security, it may be because his opportunities always seemed to be threatened by the Longhorns' plethora of backs. His low usage rate is certainly a red flag, but it also explains a lot and may even be his saving grace. He's got a good excuse for his low mileage; maybe the Cowboys simply saw something that other teams in the draft didn't. 2025 NFL defensive line rankings: T.J. Watt, Cam Heyward propel Steelers to No. 1 :: PFF Link The Cowboys' defensive line was one of the worst units against the run in 2024, but they saw their overall stats buoyed by Micah Parsons, Osa Odighizuwa, and a fierce pass rush. They rank 12th here but could finish even higher if they prove to be at least average against the run. Every NFL team's potential breakout player in 2025 includes Cowboys rookie :: Cowboys Wire Link Edge rusher Donovan Ezeiruaku has insane pass rush skills, and he may have been the best pure edge in the entire 2025 draft class. He won't be overburdened in his first season, though, as there's a deep rotation at the position. But he could rack up six sacks or more for the Cowboys by the time the year is over. Test your Tyler knowledge with the Cowboys O-line :: Dallas Cowboys Assessing Cowboys' OL reveals questions on edge, excess depth inside :: Cowboys Wire Link The O-line's center and guards are set, but everything beyond that is uncertain. Tyler Guyton needs to improve or he risks getting benched again this season. And Terence Steele has been merely average for all but one season of his career. The Cowboys do have some experience as depth, including Asim Richards, Nate Thomas, T.J. Bass, Brock Hoffman, Rob Jones, Saahdiq Charles, and Hakeem Adenji. Matt Waletzko may be facing a tough road to the 53-man roster, however, and rookie Ajani Cornelius is looking to just make a first impression. Pickens picks Prescott over promise to Pittsburgh kids: Cowboys WR cancels camp for new QB :: Cowboys Wire Link The mercurial wideout had said he would return to host his George Pickens Youth Football Camp in Pittsburgh this June, even after being traded to Dallas. But instead, he's working and bonding with his Cowboys teammates at the annual retreat organized by Dak Prescott. Camp registrants are livid; the event will be rescheduled and feature at least one current Steelers player. Dak Prescott sinks 65-foot bomb to win match against Good Good Golf—is this the Cowboys' year? :: Golf Digest Link The Cowboys QB has notched his first clutch win of 2025. Earlier this week, Prescott teamed up with his brother Tad and backup Will Grier on the links against the guys from Good Good Golf. With the match tied at five-under, Dak stepped up and drained an incredible 65-foot birdie putt for the walkoff. Recent Arch Manning speculation makes him likelier to wind up with the Dallas Cowboys when he declares for the NFL Draft :: A to Z Sports Link First, it's very much an extreme long shot, despite what the national media may push to generate buzz. But consider this: Manning has revealed he wants a real college experience, not just one year as the Texas starter. That means he'd be coming out in 2027... when technically, Dallas would have an escape clause in Prescott's contract. It wouldn't be pretty from a dead-money and cap standpoint, but it would be doable. And so the speculation will continue. Cowboys rookie Tyler Neville's inspiring story is one of hope, overcoming stacked odds :: Dallas Morning News Link Born deaf, having a metal bar inserted into his body to correct a sunken chest, living through Hodgkin's lymphoma, and dealing with a back surgery that required him to learn to walk again as a teen, the undrafted free agent has already overcome more than most in his life. Now the Harvard product is alongside the best tight ends in the game at TEU and trying to make the roster of the Dallas Cowboys. Cowboys 53-man roster projection: One spot left open for player not on current roster :: The Athletic Link If the Cowboys are to make another notable roster move between now and the season opener, cornerback is the best bet. This roster projection allows for the addition of a veteran like Stephon Gilmore. If they choose to stick with who they have, Andrew Booth is likely the fifth CB, behind DaRon Bland, Shavon Revel, Jr., Kaiir Elam, and Caelen Carson (with Trevon Diggs starting out on IR). The Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders appear on The Tonight Show :: D Magazine Link It's been a good week for America's Sweethearts. Season 2 of their Netflix show is a hit, they made national news by scoring a 400% pay raise for the upcoming season, and now they've performed on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon. After an audience member made the suggestion, six members of the squad hit the stage to rock their signature "Thunderstruck" routine.

Dolphins duo among CBS' top 100 players entering 2025 NFL season
Miami is looking to bounce back from an 8-9 finish a season ago that left the Dolphins outside the NFL playoffs after consecutive trips in the two seasons beforehand. As the Dolphins look to author a bounce-back campaign, Miami needs its stars to be the best versions of themselves. In CBS' annual look at the NFL's top 100 players, the Dolphins boast a duo among that group headed into the 2025 season. There's just one problem for Miami: One of its biggest stars is likely on his way out in short order. Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill was ranked as the league's No. 30 player, while cornerback Jalen Ramsey checked in as the No. 99 player in the NFL. Both players suffered significant drops in the rankings as compared to this time last year. Hill fell from No. 4 to No. 30, while Ramsey dipped from No. 43 to No. 99. Here's what CBS had to say about both: No. 30: Tyreek Hill, WR After two dominant seasons with the Dolphins, Hill's numbers were down in 2024. There were a lot of reasons, but he wasn't the same player. He had just 81 catches with six touchdowns. This is a big year for him. No. 99: Jalen Ramsey, CB Ramsey's play has definitely tailed off some from his best years, but he still deserves a spot on this list. Where he plays this season remains a mystery since he will be traded. But he can still help a team with secondary needs. But is he worth salary? - Pete Prisco, CBS. Trade speculation continues to swirl around Dolphins cornerback Jalen Ramsey and it still appears as though it's just a matter of time before Ramsey heads back to the West Coast. Hill recently said publicly that he's going to put the full court press on a Ramsey return to South Florida. Time will tell whether or not that can indeed be effective. In the meantime, CBS' top 100 illustrates the importance of Hill on the Dolphins' 2025 fortunes in particular. Miami needs Hill to recapture the type of playmaking magic he authored during the 2022 and 2023 seasons when he notched back-to-back 1,700-yard receiving seasons. The defending Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles led the way in CBS' top 100 player rankings with 10, while the Detroit Lions had eight players on the list.
