Opponent Pittsburgh Steelers lose superstar to injury

PITTSBURGH – The Pittsburgh Steelers are focused on the Indianapolis Colts and some injuries, but will now have their eyes on the Dallas Cowboys. In Week 4 against the New York Giants, the NFL world watched as superstar linebacker Micah Parsons was carted off the field with what is now being called an ankle injury.

According to ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler, Parsons walked around the Cowboys locker room after the game with a slight limp, but he told his teammates he would be ready to go. Dallas travels to Pittsburgh next week to face the Steelers, which, if Parsons plays, will be a matchup between two of the top favorites for Defensive Player of the Year.

The Cowboys will now have 10 days to recover before having to face the Steelers, giving Parsons plenty of time to heal his ankle/foot. Pittsburgh will turn its attention to Dallas after the Colts game and will have another week in which they will monitor a key injury on their opponent’s side.

Dallas won against the Giants, 20-15 to improve to 2-2. The Steelers look to welcome them to Acrisure Stadium with a 4-0 record after a win over Indianapolis.
