Cowboys linebacker Micah Parsons had a stellar game on Sunday vs. the Vikings, even completing his 10th sack of the season. It was his fifth two-sack game of the season.
However, in the fourth quarter, Parsons left the field briefly after suffering a potential knee injury. He was slow to get off the field while walking to the sidelines to be evaluated in the blue medical tent.
As the Cowboys were up 40–3 over the Vikings in the fourth quarter at this point, fans thought coach Mike McCarthy would most definitely keep Parsons out of the game, considering Parsons is a defensive superstar and the team plays Thursday against the Giants.
