Dallas Cowboys star linebacker Micah Parsons missed Saturday's walkthrough ahead of the team's Monday night wild-card game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, but he had a great reason.
Parsons announced the birth of his daughter on Twitter on Saturday afernoon:
Micah Parsons7.1 ounces! Thank you God for blessing me with most beautiful baby girl! <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/girldad?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#girldad</a>
The 23-year-old was named first-team All-Pro for the second year in a row on Friday after finishing with 65 total tackles, 13.5 sacks, 14 tackles for loss, three forced fumbles and three fumble recoveries.
