Dallas Cowboys star Micah Parsons is still a little irritated that teammate Malik Hooker criticizes him for what he does in his free time.

Parsons has a podcast he hosts regularly called “The Edge,” which airs episodes on Mondays and Tuesdays — the days players typically have off during the NFL season.

Last month, Hooker questioned Parsons’ dedication to helping Dallas succeed on the field. The Cowboys safety stated that hosting a podcast, as Parsons does, would only serve as a distraction in the middle of the season. Parsons, unsurprisingly, took offense.

Following the Cowboys’ training camp practice on Friday, Parsons was asked about the offseason spat with Hooker. While the two-time All-Pro said he was “ready to move on” following the drama, he gave Hooker a parting message before closing the tumultuous chapter for good.

“It is what it is. What people do on their free time, that’s what they do,” Parsons said, via Joseph Hoyt of Lone Star Live. “I know what I do on my free time, so make sure you go to ‘The Edge’ on a Monday or Tuesday night if you can. What he does on a Monday and Tuesday night when he’s not in the building is his business. What I do, that’s me and my business and my family, so I’m going to stick with that.

“It’s not a misunderstanding. It’s very clear what it was. It is what it is, everything we said.”

Parsons appears willing to forgive Hooker, but it doesn’t look like the man will soon forget what was said.
