Wow, if that's true then Parsons should definitely be suspended 1-2 games for that. Absolutely zero excuse. Another undisciplined player picked by Jerry Jones. What a waste.
I’d say ejection…not sure if the NFL normally suspends players for punching a guy on the field.
Yes, they suspended Mike Evans early this season for an on field shove on the cornerback this season in Week 2, and it cost him the premier nationally televised game vs Goodell's beloved Green Bay squad that the Bucs lost to only because they didn't have enough receiving talent to score just enough points and barely lost.
So there is definitely precedent.
Next game is on Sunday night and the Colts are the definition of average. They need the Cowboys with Micah for promotion for sure.
The league overlords don't give a rat's sass about that. The NFL is all about sending messages to players and that no one, not even premier players like Tom Brady, Zeke Elliott, Adrian Peterson, Ben R., Mike Evans, Parsons, Suh, Ray Rice, Deshaun Watson or Coach Sean Payton are above the rules. Only Daddy Rodgers aka God Almighty #12 in puke and piss reigns above Roger Goodell's head.
SNF has been stuck with crappy matchups with little to talk about plenty of times before and trust me, that is the last thing the NFL is concerned with.
Parsons may, could, and very well might be suspended.
