3 Studs (and 2 Duds) From Cowboys' Handling of Jets in Week 2

Stud: Micah Parsons

Yeah, Micah Parsons is coming for that Defensive Player of the Year award.

Parsons was on one in Week 2, terrorizing another opposing QB and being a nightmare to the Jets' entire offense. The star edge rusher had zero issues taking advantage of the Jets' porous O-line, recording two sacks, three tackles for loss and four QB hits. His constant pressure helped keep Wilson rattled for most of the contest, ensuring no upset took place.

The Penn State product nearly got himself into the end zone in Week 2 as well. He showed off his grown man strength by ripping the ball out of Dalvin Cook's hands in the third quarter and returning it 37 yards for a touchdown. Though the TD score was reversed, it was just yet another example of how Parsons can make something happen on any given play.

He's now up to 3.0 sacks on the year, putting him on a great pace to smash his personal record of 13.5 in 2023.
