Parsons (illness) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Bucs, Ralph Vacchiano of Fox Sports reports. Parsons was added to the injury report Friday as a DNP, so this one bears watching into the weekend for Dallas. Carl Lawson, Marshawn Kneeland and Tyrus Wheat would be next up for snaps off the edge for the Cowboys if Parsons is unable to play Sunday.

Parsons (illness) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Bucs, Ralph Vacchiano of Fox Sports reports. Parsons was added to the injury report Friday as a DNP, so this one bears watching into the weekend for Dallas. Carl Lawson, Marshawn Kneeland and Tyrus Wheat would be next up for snaps off the edge for the Cowboys if Parsons is unable to play Sunday.
Parsons recorded 2.0 sacks among his four tackles (three solo) in Sunday's win over the Panthers. Despite missing four games in the middle of the season due to an ankle injury, Parsons is on the verge of reaching double-digit sacks for the fourth straight season. In six games since his return, he's piled up 7.5 sacks, giving him 8.5 on the year with three games left on the Cowboys' schedule.
Parsons recorded eight tackles (four solo) including 2.0 sacks in Sunday's win over the Commanders. It's the second time in three games since returning from a high-ankle sprain that Parsons has rung up multiple sacks. The fourth-year player has 5.0 sacks in seven games on the year, and with six more games left on the Cowboys' schedule, he's still got a solid chance at producing his fourth straight campaign with double-digit sacks.
Parsons made two solo tackles, both of which were sacks, in Sunday's 34-6 loss to the Eagles. The pass rusher also played on 54 percent of the defensive snaps in his first game back after missing the previous four contests due to a high-ankle sprain. Parsons is up to 16 tackles (13 solo), including 3.0 sacks, on the season. He also has a pass breakup and a forced fumble.
Parsons (ankle) is not on the Cowboys' inactive list for Sunday's game against the Eagles. Parsons will return Sunday from a four-game absence due to a high-ankle sprain he suffered in Week 4 against the Giants, though the 2021 first-round pick is expected to operate on a snap count, per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. Parsons' return solidifies the Cowboys' defensive front along with starters Chauncey Golston, Mazi Smith and Osa Odighizuwa.
Parsons (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Eagles, but he's expected to be available on a limited snap count, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports. According to Pelissero, Parsons probably won't be ready to play his full allotment of snaps for another week or two, but the Cowboys plan to use him on passing downs with the hope that he can apply some pressure on Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts. Parsons has missed the Cowboys' last four games after being carted off the field in a Week 4 win over the Giants with a left high-ankle sprain.
Parsons (ankle) is likely to return to action in Sunday's Week 10 contest versus Philadelphia, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. Parsons suffered a high-ankle sprain in Week 4 against the Giants and has missed Dallas' subsequent four contests. He was able to log a trio of limited practices this week, setting up his expected return to action Sunday. Parsons' return will likely result in Tyrus Wheat seeing less snaps on defense.
Parsons (ankle) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Eagles, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports. Parsons returned to practice in a limited fashion throughout the week, giving him a chance to play Sunday for the first time since sustaining a high-ankle sprain in Dallas' Week 4 win over the Giants. The Penn State product's return would be significant for a Cowboys defense that is currently tied for the fewest sacks in the NFL (18.0) through nine weeks. However, if Parsons can't play through the pain, expect Tyrus Wheat to serve as one of the Cowboys' top defensive ends.
Parsons (ankle) was a limited practice participant Wednesday, Joe Hoyt of AllDLLS.com reports. Todd Archer of ESPN.com reported Wednesday that Parsons is expected to practice in a limited capacity this week while recovering from a high-ankle sprain he sustained in Week 4 against the Giants. If he is listed as a limited practice participant over the next two days, Parsons will likely be tagged as questionable for Sunday's game against the Eagles.
