With first year defensive tackle Mazi Smith,line- backer DeMarvion Over- shown and defensive end Viliami Fehoko Jr.joining the Cowboys’defense, Parsons said he doesn’t want to overload them with information and tips, rather allowing them to learn at a consistent pace. “You don’t want to put too much on them,”Par- sons said.“You gotta come into your own,come into your shoes and earn your star.It really just comes down to effort, tenacity and being fero- cious.You’re not going to make every play,but you can make a play by just running.That’s the key. Once you start running, the game slows down,and you start growing and learning from your mis- takes.” But as football changes, and more teams game plan for Parsons,he said he doesn’t want to be a player who has a few good seasons before regressing. He acknowledged he must learn more,too.To con- tinue to grow as a player, Parsons said the key is to crave the attention from other teams. “If you go to a safari, you see buses pull up on lions,and the lion never flinches,”Parsons said. “Why?Because they’re king.They’re not going to flinch.Please come visit, you’re more than wel- come.I’m OK with feeling uncomfortable.That’s how you evolve.” Gabriel Trevino: @GabeCTrevino JEROME MIRON /USA TODAY Sports Dallas Cowboys linebacker Micah Parsons added three more pounds of lean muscle to his body,and is still looking to add seven more pounds by September.
