Anxious to cleanse the disappointment of yet another primetime loss to the San Francisco 49ers, the Dallas Cowboys returned to the facility for their second day of practice. Yesterday, the team announced that DaRon Bland was activated from injured reserve, so the return of the All-Pro cornerback will happen at at some point this season. The Cowboys are also waiting to get back a few more of their key players like Micah Parsons. Before Week 9 kicks off officially with tonight’s Thursday Night Football, here’s where the Cowboys are regarding injuries.
Despite being activated, Bland did not practice (foot) for a second consecutive day. Also not practicing was Micah Parsons as his ankle injury lingers on, as well as Trevon Diggs (calf). Parsons has been working in the rehab group but hasn’t been engaged into the team portion of practice yet. Mike McCarthy has said that he feels Parsons is unlikely to play versus Atlanta. As for those who were limited, Zack Martin (shoulder) returned to practice after sitting out yesterday along with Linval Joseph (back). Caelen Carson (shoulder) practiced fully on Thursday, marking his second straight day with such a designation.
For Atlanta, some of their starters were limited. Among the names who had lighter practices were Troy Andersen (knee) and Chris Lindstrom (knee). Practicing fully today, were linebacker Kaden Eliss and safety Justin Simmons (hamstring).
