“You're lying”: Micah Parsons confronts Tom Brady in viral moment over jersey drama

Send Push
Micah Parsons may be one of the NFL ’s most feared defenders, but even he turned into a fan for a moment when he met Tom Brady in person this weekend. At the star-studded Fanatics Fest in New York City, the Dallas Cowboys linebacker finally confronted the retired quarterback — not for a sack, but for a missing Brady jersey he says he's never received. What followed was a playful but slightly tense exchange that quickly went viral online. Cameras captured the moment Parsons publicly called out Brady, proving even NFL stars have bucket-list fan requests.

Brady's team insists, Parsons pushes back

During the interaction, Brady asked his crew, “Have we signed one for Micah and sent one his way? A jersey?” His team claimed they had already done so, but Parsons wasn’t convinced. “No, you’re lying,” he replied with a smile. “I’ve never gotten a jersey. I wouldn’t lie to you.”

Parsons pressed further, saying, “I called you out last year about it.” The defensive star didn’t shy away from his disappointment, adding, “I just want a jersey, bro. Put it in my house.” The exchange highlighted a rare, candid side of two elite athletes normally seen only on the gridiron. Fans watching the clip applauded Parsons' honesty — and Brady's cool-headed response.

From rivals to respect: jersey finally promised

Though the conversation began awkwardly, it ended on a warm note with Brady promising to send a signed jersey to Parsons soon. The light-hearted confrontation marked a full-circle moment — from on-field rivals to mutual respect off the field. Parsons, who sacked Brady in the QB’s final career game, now just wants a memory to hang on his wall.
