Cowboys' Micah Parsons aching to play despite high ankle sprain

FRISCO, Texas -- Dallas Cowboys edge rusher Micah Parsons has not missed a game due to injury at any level of football, but he is staring at missing his first Sunday against the Pittsburgh Steelers because of a high left ankle sprain.

"Man, it's like, just frustrating, for real," said Parsons, who missed one game in 2021 because of COVID. "Going from being ready and being there for the team, to being out hurts me because I feel like I'm letting people down."

Parsons was wearing a protective boot and using a scooter to get around Monday after suffering the injury in the fourth quarter of Thursday's win against the New York Giants.
