Penn State Football linebacker Micah Parsons was drafted 12th by America’s Team, the Dallas Cowboys and boy was he excited.
While most players drafted remained relatively calm throughout the night, Micah Parsons was the first player to show a ton of emotion when his name was called.
The Dallas Cowboys, initially slated to draft #10, traded back with NFC East rival Philadelphia Eagles, picking up a third rounder in the process.
