Overview

  • Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said there will be no pregame tribute video for Micah Parsons, and Parsons downplayed the decision as he focuses on winning.
  • CeeDee Lamb and right guard Tyler Booker did not practice and are expected to miss the game, while cornerbacks Trevon Diggs and DaRon Bland practiced fully with Bland indicating he intends to play.
  • Green Bay is favored behind a defense allowing roughly 232 yards and 14.7 points per game through three weeks, with Parsons posting six QB hits and 1.5 sacks.
  • Former coach Mike McCarthy predicted Dallas will double-team Parsons extensively, with analysts expecting a run‑heavy approach and protection adjustments to slow Green Bay’s rush.
  • Dallas signed cornerback Corey Ballentine to the practice squad, a move some outlets suggest could offer insight into Jeff Hafley’s defensive scheme.
