"Despite leading 21-3 in the first half, the Green Bay Packers fell victim to an epic Chicago Bears comeback and were bounced from the wild card round, 31-27. This is great news for the Dallas Cowboys, as the Packers' loss secured them the 20th overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft courtesy of the Micah Parsons trade. Had the Packers won, that pick would have slid down to 25,"
"The Packers won't have a first-round pick in each of the next two years, and the cheaper fifth-year option season of Parsons is now over. Going forward, Parsons will be expensive.

"Speaking of a former Cowboys player with an ACL injury, the Packers claimed cornerback Trevon Diggs off waivers after he was released by Dallas at the end of December. The marriage between Diggs and the Cowboys was a tumultuous one that contained many levels, including but not limited to...
