The Cowboys open up their regular season on Thursday, Sept. 4 vs. the reigning Super Bowl champion Eagles. So, the clock is ticking regarding Micah Parsons's status on the team.
Dallas coach Brian Schottenheimer was asked on Wednesday for an update on Parsons's situation, which hasn't progressed much since the defensive end requested a trade from the team back on Aug. 1. From the outside, the situation is looking grim regarding Parsons's return to the Cowboys. However, Schottenheimer seems to remain optimistic about Parsons's status for the Week 1 contest.
