Micah Parsons

Cowboys declared LB Micah Parsons, QB Trey Lance, CB Caelen Carson, RB Deuce Vaughn, DE K.J. Henry, OT Matt Waletzko, and TE John Stephens inactive for Week 5 against the Steelers.

Parsons injured his ankle in Week 4 and was seen in a boot and riding a scooter this week, making his absence in Week 5 unsurprising. The team will also be without secondary wide receiver Brandin Cooks after he was placed on injured reserve this week with an infection in his knee.
