Dallas Cowboys linebacker Micah Parsons, an All-Pro player, took a big step toward returning from his ankle injury, showing up in full pads at Thursday’s practice for the first time since Week 4.
ESPN’s Todd Archer shared an image on Twitter of Parsons in full gear, hinting at a potential return. Head coach Mike McCarthy confirmed that Parsons practiced without any setbacks on Wednesday, raising hopes he could play in Sunday’s game.
Parsons has missed five games due to his injury, which has impacted the Cowboys’ defense. Known for his explosive playmaking and constant pressure on opposing offenses, his return would be a huge asset to a struggling Cowboys defense.
With a 3-5 record and a crucial home game approaching against NFC East rival, the Philadelphia Eagles, Parsons’ return could give the Cowboys the boost they need to turn their season around.
