Overview
- Parsons says he expects applause and has no hard feelings, while noting he has not spoken with Jerry Jones since OTAs.
- Dallas will not run a tribute video for the former All‑Pro, a decision Jones called not appropriate.
- Green Bay has eased Parsons in on a snap count as he manages a back issue, yet he has 1.5 sacks and frequent pressures that have helped Rashan Gary open with an NFL‑leading 4.5 sacks.
- The Cowboys enter with defensive struggles near the bottom of league rankings and are preparing to play without CeeDee Lamb along with injured starting linemen Cooper Beebe and Tyler Booker.
- The Aug. 28 trade sent Parsons to Green Bay for Kenny Clark and 2026 and 2027 first‑round picks, followed by a four‑year, $188 million Packers extension with $136 million guaranteed.
