Cowboys’ Micah Parsons hints at ability to play offense with incredible high school highlights image

The Dallas Cowboys have a running back problem.

They might have had the solution on their roster all along (we're joking, probably).

Superstar pass rusher Micah Parsons shared his high school football highlights with the world on Sunday night. Turns out, the dude was an incredible running back.

Playing at Harrisburg High School in Pennsylvania, Parsons was just as tough to tackle as you might imagine.

Parsons focused on linebacker at Penn State, then was turned into more of an edge player in the NFL.

His RB dreams died in high school.

But if the Cowboys didn't trust any of Miles Sanders, Javonte Williams, Jaydon Blue or Phil Mafah, they could always hand the ball to Parsons.

They won't, but they could.

Parsons is lined up for a record-setting contract for a defensive player whenever Jerry Jones decides to bring the offer to the table. Imagine how much more he could get if he also played running back.

It's a fun possibility to dream on, if nothing else. Cowboys fans wouldn't doubt Parsons' ability to get into the end zone.
