Micah Parsons, DaRon Bland Don't Practice Wednesday

4 weeks ago

Dallas Cowboys linebacker Micah Parsons (ankle) and cornerback DaRon Bland (foot) were both absent from practice on Wednesday. As prep for Week 8 against the San Francisco 49ers begins, the Cowboys find themselves short two key defensive playmakers. Parsons has been sidelined since Week 4 against the Giants and now appears to be at risk of missing his third consecutive game. He registered 14 tackles, one sack, and zero turnovers through the four games for which he was healthy. Meanwhile, Bland, who was an interception machine last year, is still waiting to make his first appearance of the 2024 season. He's been on injured reserve all year, and while the Cowboys did open his 21-day practice window earlier this month, he has not yet seen the field. Dallas' deadline to activate Bland is Oct. 30; if they don't move him to the 53-man roster by then, he'll be forced to miss the entire season.
