ARLINGTON - Saturday marks the official end of the season for Trevon Diggs as he faces a challenging climb back to health for 2025.
Meanwhlle, buddy Micah Parsons is trying to help their Dallas Cowboys get healthy now.
Dallas has officially moved Diggs onto the Reserve/Injured list after his serious - one report from our colleague Dr. David Chao reflects on the knee injury that requires bone graft surgery "ominous news for an NFL player'' …and and the club has signed CB Andrew Booth to the active roster.
Dallas also elevated center Dakoda Shepley and linebacker Darius Harris from the practice squad for tomorrow night’s game against Tampa Bay.
Meanwhile and he has his 2024 season-closing personal goals in place as well.
So he's not going to let a flu bug get in the way of any of that ... right?
The Cowboys on Friday released their official injury report in preparation for the "Sunday Night Football'' visit from the Tampa Bay Bucs, and to the surprise - or maybe shock? - of many in Cowboys Nation, Micah's name is on the list.
Parsons is officially listed as questionable for Sunday's game at AT&T Stadium due to an illness.
Should the news be especially concerning for 6-8 Dallas as it limps through a season in which Dak Prescott, Zack Martin, Trevon Diggs and likely DeMarcus Lawrence are among those injured and out for the year?
Probably not, as the Cowboys are not pressing the panic button.
Indeed, Cowboys COO Stephen Jones appeared on 105.3 The Fan following the release of the injury report and shared an update on Parsons' status.
"I’d be surprised if Micah doesn’t come around. You never know on these flu bugs, but he should be fine," Jones said.
