Overview
- Jones confirmed there will be no pregame recognition for Parsons and said the Cowboys need “antidotes” for him, contrasting the situation with Emmitt Smith’s return.
- Parsons told the Associated Press that sacking former teammate Dak Prescott “is going to be painful” and said he plans to treat the trip as just another game.
- Dallas traded Parsons to Green Bay on Aug. 28 for Kenny Clark and two first-round picks, after which the Packers signed him to a four-year, $188 million extension.
- Through three games, Parsons has 1.5 sacks and 15 pressures with top-tier analytic grades after ramping up from a back issue earlier in September.
- Green Bay is 2-1 with a surging defense while Dallas is 1-2 and struggling defensively; CeeDee Lamb is out with an ankle injury and Jadeveon Clowney is expected to make his Cowboys debut Sunday.
