Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader Blasts Green Bay Packers For “Unsportsmanlike Conduct”

A member of the Dallas Cowboys‘ cheerleading squad has accused the Green Bay Packers of unsportsmanlike conduct during the Cowboys’ NFL playoff matchup against the Packers last weekend.

Cowboys cheerleader Darian Lassiter took to TikTok this week to air her grievances about the Packers’ players following their Wild Card playoff game against Dallas last Sunday (Jan. 14). Lassiter says that members of the Packers’ team spoke to her and other Cowboys cheerleaders in an aggressive manner during touchdown celebrations and that she felt “disrespected” by the players’ alleged actions.

“I have never experienced such disrespect from the other teams’ players to the cheerleaders in my five years as an NFL cheerleader,” Lassiter said. “We would literally be minding our own business and the Packers just scored a touchdown — this is one example. They would come up to us standing on the sidelines minding our own business and start yelling at us.”

Lassiter also pointed out that the Packers would’ve been penalized by the referees if they had acted in a similar fashion towards the Cowboys players. “I feel like it’s unsportsmanlike conduct and it’s so crazy how they can’t do that to the Cowboys players or any other players, but they can do it to the cheerleaders and nothing’s going to happen. I understand the playoffs is a huge deal. I truly get it, but that does not mean your humbleness and respect for women flies out the window.”

The Dallas Cowboys were defeated by the Green Bay Packers in a 48-32 blowout loss, eliminating the Cowboys from the playoffs and dashing their hopes at their first Super Bowl appearance since 1996. The Packers will now face off against the San Francisco 49ers in the playoffs’ Divisional Round on Saturday (Jan. 20).
