Cowboys Face Defensive Setback Due to Injuries

The Dallas Cowboys face significant challenges ahead as two of their top defensive players, Micah Parsons and DeMarcus Lawrence, are expected to miss multiple games due to injuries sustained in their recent victory over the New York Giants. Parsons has a high ankle sprain, while Lawrence is dealing with a foot sprain, both injuries likely sidelining them until after the team's Week 7 bye. With both players out, rookie Marshawn Kneeland is set to take on a larger role, while the team may need to seek additional veteran pass rush support. The Cowboys' defense, already struggling this season, has lost key players, including Sam Williams to injury earlier in training camp. As they prepare for upcoming games against the Pittsburgh Steelers and Detroit Lions, the absence of Parsons and Lawrence poses a serious threat to their defensive capabilities. This situation highlights the depth issues the Cowboys are facing as they navigate a tough schedule ahead.
