    Dallas Cowboys fans worried that star defenseman Micah Parsons was carted off the field and had to be carted to the team bus after the game can relax a little.

    Parsons was seen in a video captured by WFAA Dallas visibly limping as he exited the team bus shortly after the Cowboys landed back in Texas following their Thursday Night Football win over the New York Giants.

    The initial reports indicate that Parsons has a high ankle sprain, NFL insider Ian Rapoport reported Friday morning, with the caveat that the linebacker still needs to undergo an MRI to determine the injury.

    Here’s everything you need to know about Micah Parsons’ injury:

    Here’s a video of Parsons carefully exiting the Cowboys’ team bus after the return trip to the Dallas area following their win over the Giants:

    When did Micah Parsons suffer his left ankle injury?

    With less than four minutes to play, Parsons was blocked on a crucial third down by Giants center John Michael Schmitz against right guard Greg Van Roten, who fell to the ground on top of Parsons.

    “While I was planting, a guy fell on me,” Parsons said after the game.

    What did Micah Parsons say about the x-rays of his left ankle?

    Parsons confirmed he had a left ankle injury and said X-rays came back negative.

    Why was Micah Parsons transported during the Cowboys-Giants game?

    The car served as a means of transportation for the Cowboys star immediately after his injury.

    Parsons carefully left the field, struggling to put weight on his left leg while being supported by trainers. He was later carried to the locker room with his left shoe removed and walked through the locker room with a noticeable limp after the game.

    How long will it take Micah Parsons to recover?

    According to the Cleveland Clinic, it can take six to eight weeks to recover from an upper ankle sprain, which is a tear or damage to the upper ankle ligaments that connect the tibia and fibula.

    A study published in 2022 by the National Institutes of Health confirmed this, finding that athletes needed between 5 and 8 weeks to recover, depending on the treatment.

    How many games could Micah Parsons miss for the Cowboys?

    The Cowboys still have 10 days until their next game against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Oct. 6, but that might be too soon to return. The Cowboys’ Week 6 home game against the Detroit Lions on Oct. 13 might also be too soon.

    Dallas has a bye week in Week 7 and returns to play in San Francisco on Oct. 27, four weeks after his injury.

    Cowboys games following Parsons’ four-week injury layoff: Dallas visits the Atlanta Falcons (November 3), hosts the Philadelphia Eagles (November 10), hosts the Houston Texans (November 18) and visits the Washington Commanders (November 11) . . 24).
