Dallas Cowboys head coach Brian Schottenheimer offered an optimistic take that star pass rusher Micah Parsons will be on the field for his team’s season opener Sept. 4 against the Philadelphia Eagles.

The Dallas Cowboys are a little over two weeks away from making the trip north to take on the defending Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles in the NFL season opener and a big question still lingers about whether defensive end Micah Parsons will be on the field in his home state of Pennsylvania on Thursday,

Micah Parsons is currently in a contract dispute with the Dallas Cowboys and has requested a trade away from the team, but head coach Brian Schottenheimer is confident he won't hold out of regular-season games.
