Dallas Cowboys linebacker Micah Parsons will not play in Week 9 due to an ankle injury. He did not practice and remains in the rehab group, according to head coach Mike McCarthy, who stated Parsons is "not quite there yet."

Parsons has missed four games since injuring his ankle in Week 4 against the New York Giants. His absence, along with cornerback DaRon Bland's injury, has significantly impacted the Cowboys' defense this season.

Parsons was a standout player last season, leading the NFL in quarterback pressures. His performance has been recognized with multiple awards, including Pro Bowl selections and NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year in 2021.
