Jaguars’ cornerback Jourdan Lewis reacted to the news of Micah Parsons being traded to the Packers.
Jacksonville Jaguars’ cornerback Jourdan Lewis, a former teammate of Micah Parsons, reacted to the news that he was traded from the Dallas Cowboys to the Green Bay Packers.
In a blockbuster trade, the news broke on Thursday afternoon that the Cowboys were trading Parsons to Green Bay in exchange for two first-round picks and defensive tackle Kenny Clark.
In addition to that, Parsons is now the highest-paid non-quarterback in the NFL, signing a new deal with the Packers worth $188 million over four seasons, which includes $136 million guaranteed.
On a per-year basis, Parsons is earning $47 million per season.
Lewis signed with the Jaguars as a free agent and, at one time this offseason, was the highest-paid nickel cornerback in the NFL, earning $30 million over three seasons.
Before joining the Jaguars, Lewis had spent eight seasons with the Cowboys, which included playing the last four with Parsons.
