DeMarcus Lawrence Takes Shot at Cowboys After Signing With Seahawks. The Dallas Cowboysâ offseason just took a dramatic turn as long-time defensive end DeMarcus Lawrence has officially left the team for a new challenge with the Seattle Seahawks. However, his departure has been anything but quiet.
Lawrenceâs Move to Seattle
After spending 11 years in Dallas and earning four Pro Bowl selectionsâmost recently in 2023âLawrence has signed a three-year, $32.5 million deal with the Seahawks ahead of the 2025 season. While Cowboys fans were already disappointed to see him go, his latest comments have sparked even more controversy.
A Parting Shot at the Cowboys
During an interview with Seahawks blogger Brian Nemhauser, Lawrence didnât hold back when discussing his former team. While acknowledging that Dallas will always be home, he made it clear that he didnât believe he had a real shot at winning a Super Bowl with the Cowboys.
âA change in scenery is always good, but Dallas is my home. I made my home there, my family lives there, Iâm forever going to be there. But I know for sure Iâm not going to win a Super Bowl there, so yeah. We here.â
He went on to emphasize the importance of being on a team with all the right pieces in place to contend for a championship.
âJust thinking and wanting a Super Bowl, it doesnât all come together if all the pieces ainât there. For me to have another opportunity to go and chase my dream to win a Super Bowl with a good team and the pieces are in place, I had to take my opportunity.â
Micah Parsons Fires Back
It didnât take long for Lawrenceâs former teammates to react to his comments. Star Cowboys pass rusher Micah Parsons took to social media to express his frustration, calling out Lawrenceâs remarks.
âThis what rejection and envy look like! This some clown s**t,â Parsons wrote on Thursday.
Lawrence quickly fired back, refusing to back down from his statement.
âCalling me a clown wonât change the fact that I told the truth. Maybe if you spent less time tweeting and more time winning, I wouldnât have left.â
Will Lawrence Be Proven Right?
The Cowboysâ Super Bowl drought is now stretching into its 30th year, something that has frustrated fans and players alike. While Dallas continues to be a playoff contender, they have failed to make it past the Divisional Round since their last championship win in 1995.
Lawrence is hoping that his move to Seattle, a team he believes has the right pieces in place, will lead him to the championship heâs chasing. But will his decision pay off, or will the Cowboys prove him wrong by finally breaking their title drought?
One thing is for sureâthis isnât the last weâll hear about the fallout from Lawrenceâs comments. Cowboys fans will have this matchup circled on their calendars, and all eyes will be on the Seahawks and Cowboys when they face off next season.
