Dallas Cowboys linebacker Micah Parsons went viral ahead of his team’s clash with the Tennessee Titans on Thursday night.
Parsons, who will be playing hurt, was seen wearing a club cast on his left hand during the pregame warmups, having previously declined to discuss his injury.
“You know, football,” he told reporters on Tuesday after he was asked about the hand wrap he was wearing during practice. “That’s the reality of it. We play a physical sport. I’m good though.”
Parsons was not listed on Dallas’ injury report on Monday but was referred to as limited on Tuesday and Wednesday as the result of a hand injury. He is involved in the TNF clash with the Titans, who have several players out themselves and are starting a third-string quarterback.
Dallas Playing A Team With Nothing To Lose
While the game is a meaningless one for Tennesee – they will be playing the Jacksonville Jaguars to determine who wins the AFC South in Week 18 – the Cowboys could continue to put pressure on the Philadelphia Eagles after beating them on Saturday.

Should the Cowboys lose, Philly will clinch the NFC without having to play. Despite the importance of Thursday’s game where Dallas is concerned, Parsons would have been sidelined if the team thought the injury was serious.
