The Dallas Cowboys are moving on from Mike McCarthy, and one of the team’s top players has made his first public comments on the decision.

Dallas star linebacker Micah Parsons, who's entering the final season of his rookie deal, said, "Losing a great coach like Mike hurts."

When discussing the recent coaching shakeup on his “The Edge with Micah Parsons” podcast, the star linebacker expressed it’s “very sad” to see McCarthy, 61, leave due to the relationships cultivated over the past few years while previewing what’s expected to be an “interesting” offseason in Dallas.
