Is Micah Parsons injured?

According to the NBC broadcast, Micah Parsons is injured.

He was shown in a replay landing hard on his lower back during the third quarter.

Parsons has been on the injury report with a back injury in recent weeks.

He was also said to be in the medical tent with the independent neurological consultant, so Parsons was evidently being examined for a concussion.

The Cowboys scored a TD on their final drive of the third quarter, and Parsons wasn't on the field.

It remains to be seen whether he'll come back into the game.
