An unexpected Twitter beef sparked up on May 12 as Dallas Cowboys star linebacker Micah Parsons got into it with Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill — and the Kansas City Chiefs ended up receiving some unlikely support.
It all started when Hill quote tweeted a message from Parsons that read: “Big shout to the big buy @AndrewWhitworth for taking out the time in his week to help me grow as a player! We will only grow from those who have accomplished what we seek! #Legend.”
Seemingly digging up some sort of previous drama, Hill commented: “So now you motivational speaker ? I’m confused.” And that was the match that lit the powder keg.
Micah Parsons Supports Chiefs While Ripping Tyreek Hill
Here was the full exchange between Parsons and Hill after the “motivational speaker” tweet.
Parsons: “😂😂😂😂 yeah ! Keep up with them Twitter fingers only person will pay is Tua [Tagovailoa]!!! I’ll see you Christmas Eve!! There only going to be one grinch who stole Christmas!!”
Hill: “Now you angry cause you dress like method man.”
Hill again: “Yes I’m still salty Micah beat me in a race 😔.”
Parsons: “You really slow I can’t even lie!!”
This all felt like a staged argument up until this point, and some fans even questioned if the two football players were just messing around for their audience — until Parsons got personal and brought the Chiefs into the discussion.
In a separate thread, the Cowboys pass rusher said: “@cheetah cheetah just mad Kansas city is thriving without him and he is trying to bring cowboys nation down with him!! He never been the same since he’s been in miami! He’s started losing his mind! Maybe it’s the heat?!”
If this was all one big joke, Parsons may have gone overboard with this last tweet. So much so that Hill didn’t seem to have the heart to keep it going. His only response was: “You win bro.”
Almost as if he felt bad, Parsons then ended the back-and-forth by voicing: “You still one of my favorite players !!” Yikes, the compliment following public embarrassment is never pretty.
Ex-Chiefs LB Jermaine Carter Signs With Texans
In other news, a former Chiefs player received a new contract this week on May 8. The Houston Texans announced the signing themselves, as Jermaine Carter joined the AFC South franchise.
Some Kansas City fans may not remember Carter all that well. After all, he never even made it to the Week 1 roster after he was initially brought in to be the third linebacker last offseason.
Obviously, that never came to pass and after the Chiefs drafted Leo Chenal, KC decided to end their brief relationship with Carter as a surprise veteran cut ahead of the regular season. The linebacker ended up latching on with the Cleveland Browns after that, appearing in seven games (one start) with 16 total tackles and one QB hit.
Carter began his career with the Carolina Panthers as a fifth-round selection in 2018. He played out all four years of his rookie deal in Carolina before the opportunity with the Chiefs. Over that span, his best campaign was his last one — with 17 starts, 88 total tackles (three for a loss) and three QB hits in 2021.
Unfortunately, he was unable to keep that breakout going with Kansas City and Cleveland. Carter will look to make the most of his next NFL opportunity with the Texans and new head coach DeMeco Ryans in 2022.
