Micah Parsons #11 of the Dallas Cowboys looks on from the field during an NFL football game against the Detroit Lions at AT&T Stadium on December 30, 2023 in Arlington, Texas.

Overview

  • Head coach Brian Schottenheimer said he and Parsons held a private, hour-long conversation following the preseason sideline episode.
  • Schottenheimer noted an MRI on Parsons’ back "came back pretty clean," aligning with recent optimism about his health.
  • Dak Prescott voiced confidence Parsons will suit up against the Eagles, echoing the team’s belief a resolution could still come together close to kickoff, per ESPN reporting.
  • Jerry Jones has publicly ruled out a trade and criticized agent David Mulugheta, while outside analysts continue to float trade scenarios and urge teams to call, which remains speculative.
  • If Dallas declares Parsons available and he declines to participate, reporting based on league rules says team discipline could reach roughly $5.33 million for a four-game unpaid suspension.
