What is the only reason Packers’ Micah Parsons will watch Super Bowl LX?

Fans usually have to wait until Super Bowl week to hear a player’s in-depth thoughts about the big game, as they weigh in on the teams, maybe make a prediction, provide a couple of personal updates, and of course, promote their latest sponsorship with Dove, Visa or a new energy drink. Well, people do not have to wait to hear what Micah Parsons thinks about the Super Bowl 60 matchup between the Seattle Seahawks and New England Patriots.

Apparently, there is only one aspect of the championship showdown that truly intrigues the Green Bay Packers All-Pro edge rusher, but it happens to be a significant one.

“{Patriots cornerback Christian Gonzalez’s} match up against {Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba} might be only reason I {watch} this game,” Parsons posted on X. “Popcorn ready!”

Offensive and defensive excellence will collide in Northern California

Levi’s Stadium will play host to a number of compelling narratives on Feb. 8. Sam Darnold will strive for history in the city where he began his improbable turnaround, Drake Maye can become the youngest starting quarterback to ever win a Super Bowl, Mike Vrabel can be the first person to win a ring for a franchise as both a player and coach and Seattle’s defense can cement itself as a true powerhouse. But the anticipated battle between Christian Gonzalez and Jaxon Smith-Njigba could be a football junkie’s dream.

Two of the most important players on their respective teams competing directly against each other in the final game of the season. What more could fans ask for? The Seahawks All-Pro pass-catcher has exceeded 100 receiving yards in a game nine times during the 2025-26 campaign, which includes the 153 he dropped on the Los Angeles Rams in the NFC Championship. The Patriots’ defensive linchpin recorded a crucial interception to help his team vanquish the Denver Broncos on Sunday afternoon.

These two young Texans will collide in Santa Clara, California. Although there will be many moving parts during Super Bowl 60, the player who shines brighter should go a long way in determining which franchise wears the crown by game’s end.

The recovering Micah Parsons will have his eyes fixed on this specific face-off, assuming he watches the game, that is.
