Sources: Cowboys' Parsons, Lawrence dealing with sprains
When the Dallas Cowboys play the Pittsburgh Steelers on Oct. 6, they could be without their top two defensive linemen. An MRI on Friday confirmed edge rusher Micah Parsons suffered a high left ankle sprain in the fourth quarter of the Cowboys'
20-15 win against the New York Giants on Thursday, while defensive end DeMarcus suffered a right midfoot sprain that will keep him out for multiple weeks, according to sources. It's a major blow to a defense that struggled against the run in losses to the New Orleans Saints and Baltimore Ravens but gave up just 26 yards on 24 carried against the Giants.
Parsons has missed just one game in his career (2021, COVID). Lawrence had played in 38 straight games. Parsons and Lawrence are the Cowboys' top two pass rushers. Lawrence leads the Cowboys with three sacks this season and Parsons has recorded at least 13 sacks in each of his first three seasons.
