The Dallas Cowboys traded Micah Parsons to fix their run defense, according to Jerry Jones. Of course, that could have been accomplished without jettisoning one of the best players in franchise history.
Kenny Clark will improve the run defense, but with Dallas traveling to face Saquon Barkley and the Eagles on Thursday night, Jones' explanation was never going to age well. Sure enough, the Cowboys' run defense couldn't stop a nosebleed to start the game and that was a huge reason why Dallas came up short in a 24-20 dogfight at Lincoln Financial Field.
