The Dallas Cowboys and the injury bug have become very close this season. The defense has been hammered by significant injuries throughout the first two months of the season, and things aren't showing much sign of improvement.

As the Cowboys prepare for this weekend's showdown against the Atlanta Falcons in Week 9, some of the team's key star players are no closer to returning to the field.

All-Pros Micah Parsons, Trevon Diggs, and DaRon Bland were all once again held out of practice.
