Parsons Returns to Dallas in Cowboys-Packers SNF

Micah Parsons, who was traded to the Green Bay Packers in late August, returns to AT&T Stadium Sunday Night Football at 8:20 p.m. ET for his first game back in Dallas. Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said he respects Parsons and expects him to "make some very significant plays," although the team reportedly will not run a tribute video for the homecoming. Parsons has made an immediate impact in Green Bay, generating significant pressures, multiple sacks and earning a top edge‑rusher PFF grade, while Dallas’ defense has struggled in his absence and ranks near the bottom in passing yards allowed. NBC is treating the matchup as a marquee event with on‑field Football Night in America coverage and live stadium programming. Both teams come into the primetime NFC showdown after surprising Week 3 losses, adding stakes to Parsons’ return.
