Micah Parsons Still Hasn't Met His Expectations

Going against one of the most athletic quarterbacks he'll see all season, Parsons harried Taysom Hill throughout the night, totaling five tackles and two quarterback hits. Cowboys defensive coordinator Dan Quinn confirmed that the rookie was assigned to account for Hill's running ability on at least eight or nine occasions.
