The Green Bay Packers sound like they need a lesson in manners.
Fifth-year Dallas Cowboys cheerleader Darian Lassiter claimed that Packers players got uncomfortably close to her and her fellow cheerleaders’ faces and were “yelling at us” after touchdowns during Green Bay’s wild-card round win on Sunday.
“I have never experienced such disrespect from the other teams’ players to the cheerleaders in my five years as an NFL cheerleader,” she said in a now-viral TikTok video posted Wednesday night. “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.”
She then described how close the Packers players had gotten to their faces.
“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,” she continued. “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.”
Lassiter concluded her 58-second video by saying that she would be rooting for every team but the Packers in the playoffs now that the Cowboys have been eliminated.
A second Cowboys cheerleader appeared to corroborate the claim in the comments section of Lassiter’s video.
“Literally was on the verge of tears,” fellow cheerleader Jensen Lynn commented on the video, according to Outkick.
The Packers defeated the Cowboys on Sunday, 48-32, to advance to the divisional round and a date with the San Francisco 49ers.
