Cowboys announce inactives for Week 14 vs. Eagles

The Dallas Cowboys will take on the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 14 for Sunday Night Football in what could be a pivotal showdown in the NFC East.

Fortunately, they'll count with star pass rusher Micah Parsons, which was expected but far from a guarantee after the Cowboys unexpectedly listed him on the injury report on Sunday. Given how uncommon it is for a team to make a gameday addition to the report, it's fair to say Cowboys Nation suffered a bit of a scare.

However, Parsons is officially active entering the game. He's listed with an illness and it's reportedly the flu he's battling. Let's dive into those who won't be playing the primetime showdown.

Cowboys inactives vs. Eagles, Week 14

1. WR Jalen Brooks
2. RB Deuce Vaughn
3. OT Asim Richards
4. CB Noah Igbinoghene
5. CB Eric Scott Jr.
6. QB Trey Lance (Emergency QB) 

Seventh-round draft pick Jalen Brooks is once again a healthy scratch following undrafted TE Princeton Fant's practice squad elevation on Saturday. Fant seems to be impressing his coaches on special teams and Brooks is the player who's paying for it.

There are no real surprises on the list as the team keeps boasting remarkable health entering Week 14 with no player on the 53-man roster having a game designation on this week's Friday injury report.
