Cowboys have become latest victims of MetLife Stadium turf
The MetLife Stadium turf, a perennial thorn in the side of NFL players, has struck again. This time, the victim is Dallas Cowboys linebacker Micah Parsons, who was carted off the field during the team’s Thursday night victory over the New York Giants.
Parsons’ injury, a high ankle sprain, is the latest in a long line of player injuries directly attributed to the MetLife Stadium field.
The playing surface has been criticized for its inconsistency and susceptibility to divots and tears, leading to numerous player complaints and concerns about the safety of the game.

The Cowboys’ injury troubles continued as Parsons was not the only player affected. Cornerback Trevon Diggs left the game due to an injury sustained while attempting a tackle and was taken to the locker room for dehydration.
Additionally, defensive end Demarcus Lawrence suffered a foot injury that will keep him sidelined for the next few weeks.
In previous years, we have witnessed some well-known players’ seasons come to an end on that very field.
Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers suffered a torn Achilles last year, 49ers pass rusher Nick Bosa suffered a torn ACL in a 2020 game against the New York Jets, DT Solomon Thomas and quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo also got injured, and former Giants wide receiver Sterling Shepard tore his ACL in Week 3 of the 2022 season while running down the field.
As the NFL continues to prioritize player safety, it is imperative that league officials address the recurring issues with the MetLife Stadium field.

Trackdown: Dallas 7-Eleven robbery suspect wanted
DALLAS – Dallas police need a name for a dangerous robber who pulled a gun on a 7-Eleven clerk and walked out with the cash register drawer.
He was caught on camera. But it’s been six months, and he’s still at large.
7-Eleven Robberies
What we know:
The robbery in question happened on Jan. 13 around 10:30 p.m. at the store at 302 North Marsalis Avenue.
A Black male who is about 5 feet 8 inches tall and about 170 to 180 pounds walked in and waited until no other customers were inside.
“After it’s empty, he displays a handgun and points it at the cashier,” said Det. Eduardo Lopez Villa. “I don’t know what he said. He just demanded the cash from the cash register.”
Det. Villa said the suspect took the whole cash register drawer before fleeing eastbound on foot on 8th Street.
What you can do:
The detective believes anyone who knows the suspect will be able to recognize him.
“Yes, most definitely based on the video and the screenshot. If you know him, you’ll recognize him,” he said.
Tipsters can call or text Det. Villa at 469-755-8445.
“I need his information so I can talk to him about this incident,” he said.
