Micah Parsons is back for the Dallas Cowboys in their game against the Philadelphia Eagles, ending his four-game absence due to a high ankle sprain.

This was the first time Parsons, a two-time All-Pro, missed a game because of an injury in his four seasons. The Cowboys are on a three-game losing streak heading into Sunday’s matchup, while the Eagles have won four games in a row.

Philadelphia tight end Dallas Goedert is also active after missing three games with a hamstring injury.

Quarterback Dak Prescott is out with a torn hamstring and might need season-ending surgery. Cooper Rush will start in his place. Rush filled in for an injured Prescott two years ago, going 4-1.

Dallas left tackle Tyler Guyton is inactive with a neck issue that has been bothering him for several weeks.

The Cowboys are still without cornerback DaRon Bland, who had surgery for a stress fracture in his foot late in the preseason.

Dallas placed Bland on the active roster after starting his return-to-play window, but his symptoms have persisted. Last season, Bland set an NFL record with five interception returns for touchdowns.
