Dak Parsons Among 20 Players Out Vs. Broncos

But as expected, you can write off at least 20 guys off the top, as the Cowboys will keep nearly two dozen players out of the game. These players were on the field about three hours before kick-off and were working on their preparations. Among the offensive linemen expected to sit out, quarterback Dak Prescott is definitely not playing. Also out are veterans Tyron Smith, Zack Martin, Ezekiel Elliott, Tony Pollard and CeeDee Lamb. On defense, even more players won’t play, headlined by Micah Parsons and Trevon Diggs. The Cowboys are not going to play defensive linemen DeMarcus Lawrence, Osa Odighizuwa and Dorance Armstrong. Linebackers Leighton Vander Esch and Jabril Cox will not play. And in the second, Jayron Kearse, Jourdan Lewis, Anthony Brown and Donovan Wilson will all sit out. Who knows if the Cowboys will stick with the same plan for the next two preseason games, but against the Broncos, don’t expect to see these guys on the field.
