Logan Paul has ruffled a number of feathers within the NFL group this week by issuing a $1 million problem.
The polarizing YouTuber and WWE celebrity mentioned this week that he would defeat any NFL participant in a combat, together with Cleveland Browns defensive finish Myles Garrett. He’s so assured in his talents that he is providing up $1 million to any NFL participant keen to simply accept his problem.

“My $1,000,000 open bet to fight NFL players has caused an uproar. Here’s the update: Nobody is willing to put $1M in escrow and be flown here to Puerto Rico (all expenses paid) & box with three professional judges They all want to formalize this with a streamer, venue, press conferences, etc. (i.e. get paid to fight but not risk their own money), but I don’t have time nor interest in that,” Paul wrote on the platform formerly known as Twitter.
“I won’t step away from WWE to coordinate & train for an event, but if any player wants to actually put up $1M and fight at my gym with official referees and judges, show yourselves. Also, if they want no-cameras, I’m down.”

Just a couple of minutes after Paul posted this replace on social media, Green Bay Packers go rusher Micah Parsons made it recognized that he is keen to combat for $1 million.

“I got million just let me get healthy first,” Parsons replied.
Parsons is lower than three months faraway from struggling a torn ACL, so do not anticipate to see him combat Paul anytime quickly.
Would the Packers even enable this to occur?
After buying Parsons from the Dallas Cowboys final September, the Packers rewarded him with a four-year, $188 million extension. We’d need to think about there are specific clauses in his contract that prohibit him from collaborating in occasions like this.

Besides, why would the Packers need Parsons to threat re-injuring himself? There’s really no consequence the place the staff advantages from him difficult Paul.
With that being mentioned, we extremely doubt Parsons and Paul sq. off within the ring.
