With the Green Bay Packers set to renew their longtime rivalry with the Dallas Cowboys this Sunday, the biggest storyline of the entire NFL world this week is obviously Micah Parsons returning to AT&T Stadium to face his former team for the first time.
But let's not forget that there was another player involved in that monumental trade a month ago, that being Kenny Clark, who spent nine years with the Packers before being dealt to Dallas and will also be facing his former team for the first time. And make no mistake about it. He's ready to go.
Clark admits that he was as surprised as anyone when this deal went down. But he also understands that business is business and that the Packers did what they had to do to acquire a generational talent.
"That's probably the most shocked I've ever been in my life," Clark told the media on Wednesday. "Of course, I heard the rumors that the Packers were going to trade for Micah (Parsons) and all that stuff, but I never thought it was gonna be me that was gonna be traded. It is what it is."
Kenny Clark sends a fiery message ahead of Packers revenge game
Naturally, given his history with the franchise, the three-time Pro Bowler was asked whether he'd be meeting up with some of his former teammates on Sunday night, and this was his fiery response:
"When it's gametime, I'm in the game. If those guys want to come up, I ain't seeking it out. It's all love, and they know it's all love. After the game or before the game, we can do that, but I ain't seeking out for nothing. I'm trying to win the game. ... I'm here to win. I'm gonna play my ass off and do everything I can for us to get a win."
It's a wild world we live in when Kenny Clark is talking about taking down the Packers, which just has to be heartbreaking for Cheeseheads everywhere, but here we are.

While the Dallas defense has been one of the worst in the NFL thus far, the Green Bay offense must still concern itself with Clark, who's been one of the lone bright spots for America's Team.
With 10 tackles and one of just three sacks the Cowboys as a whole have racked up this year, the soon-to-be 30-year-old (his birthday is October 4) has earned a 73.7 overall PFF grade, ranking third among all Dallas defenders, trailing only Osa Odighizuwa (77.5) and Dante Fowler Jr. (75.0), and ranking 22nd among all interior defensive linemen in the league.
That's the Clark Packers fans know. And that's the Clark Packers fans love—well, except this Sunday night, that is.
