Will Micah Parsons play for the Cowboys against the Falcons in Week 9? Latest injury update

When it rains, it pours. And in Dallas it’s thunderstorms and lightning shows. Not satisfied with having it already lost 4 games in 2024the Cowboys I thought another lasso wrapped around their ankles might raise the stakes for the season, and now it will without star pass rusher Micah Parsonswho went down in the match against the New York Giants.

It’s Week 9 and the Cowboys are waving their arms in all directions, hoping to catch the right pass and throw another pass, with two consecutive defeats their last results after poor performances on the field.

‘I don’t think I can’t do something’

Parsons missed his third straight practice to end the week the injury that caused the problem was a high ankle sprain.

I don’t think there’s anything I can’t do physically,” said Parsons of his injury status. “Like I said, it’s just more that they want to make sure I’m at my best and they kind of know what my best looks like, and so it’s just one thing that just needs to keep working and show it. They are monitoring the situation.”

It will be his team’s fourth straight game, which will likely do so rely on veteran defensive end Carl Lawson to replace him once more. The role for Lawson will be a huge task Parsons had recorded a total of 14 tacklesincluding 1.0 sacks, and defended one pass in four appearances this season.

The 49ers were the latest team to beat the Cowboys in what has been a disastrous season thus far.
