Micah Parsons' rookie campaign was a revelation, with the Dallas Cowboys linebacker proving to be a playmaker all over the field en route to 13 sacks, a Pro Bowl appearance, first-team All-Pro honors and a likely Defensive Rookie of the Year award.
The 22-year-old, however, believes he's just scratching the surface of his ability.
"Bro, I can get better everywhere," Parsons said, via ESPN. "I can become a better pass rusher. I can become a better linebacker. Like, anything. I just feel like I'm just out there raw and I was just learning and I grew and I kept getting better and better throughout the year. No one's ever perfect. There's always room to grow in many ways to get better."
Parsons proved a dynamic linebacker, able to close on ball carriers and quarterbacks with lightning speed. When injuries knocked out several of the Cowboys' edge rushers, the rookie stepped in and showed he owns the pass-rushing acumen to shine along the defensive line as well. From there, the Cowboys utilized talents across the formation to create mismatches.
