Dallas star linebacker Micah Parsons, who's entering the final season of his rookie deal, said, "Losing a great coach like Mike hurts."

McCarthy, who coached 13 seasons with the Packers and five with the Cowboys, is expected to interview with the Bears on Wednesday.

When discussing the recent coaching shakeup on his “The Edge with Micah Parsons” podcast, the star linebacker expressed it’s “very sad” to see McCarthy, 61, leave due to the relationships cultivated over the past few years while previewing what’s expected to be an “interesting” offseason in Dallas.
