ESPN's Adam Schefter's funny typo in Micah Parsons trade to Packers sums up the magnitude of the blockbuster deal image

NFL insiders had a big one on their hands on Thursday night.

Micah Parsons. The biggest move of the offseason. A blockbuster trade from the Dallas Cowboys to the Green Bay Packers.

Those news breakers on social media had to get this one out there as soon as they were sure it was happening.

And under pressure, ESPN's Adam Schefter had a funny typo.

Check it out, see if you spot it:

Yep, that says Micah Packers instead of Parsons.

"It says Micah Packers you know he was shaking while typing this lmao," wrote @NotLikeRuss in a viral post commenting on Schefter's typo.

Sometimes when Schefter has a typo, he uses the edit feature on X to change it. Not this time. He continued firing off new posts with more information about the gigantic move.

He did reply to the original post eventually acknowledging it, writing, "*correction. Parsons to the Packers. Even autocorrect was shaken up by the trade."

This isn't to blame Schefter. It's frankly a very amusing typo, and he certainly was feeling a time crunch in the moment.

But it is quirky that the post will likely exist like this for eternity. It has been viewed more than 27 million times less than a day after it was shared to X. Maybe Micah should change his last name to fit his new team.
