Micah Parsons questionable for Cowboys-Buccaneers Sunday night matchup due to illness

Parsons became a late addition to the injury report on Friday.

The Dallas Cowboys may be down another defensive star against Tampa Bay on Sunday.

Micah Parsons became a late addition to the injury report on Friday when he missed the team's walkthrough due to an illness. He was one of six Cowboys listed as questionable for the game Sunday night, joining guard T.J. Bass (thigh), linebackers Eric Kendricks (calf/personal reasons) and Nick Vigil (foot), cornerback Jourdan Lewis (elbow) and safety Juanyeh Thomas (knee).

"I'd be surprised if Micah doesn't come around," Cowboys COO Stephen Jones told 105.3 The Fan (KRLD-FM) shortly after the injury report was released. "I mean, you never know on these flu bugs, but he should be fine."

Wide receiver Jalen Brooks joined cornerback Trevon Diggs as the only two Dallas players ruled out for the Tampa Bay matchup. Jones said Brooks hyperextended his knee of the last play of Thursday's practice.

"Probably looking at something there where (he) probably can't go this week, but should be good to go after that," Jones said.

For the Buccaneers, wide receiver Mike Evans was ruled questionable with a hamstring injury, while tight end Cade Otton (knee) and linebacker K.J. Britt (ankle) were ruled doubtful.
