The NFL world is prone to injuries, illness, or other health issues. However, many players are unstoppable despite these troubles on their way. The most recent brave & triumphant comeback was of Dallas Cowboys Micah Parsons, who made a similar return as his head coach Mike McCarthy.

The Cowboys’ most impactful defensive player, Parsons, faced uncertainty about whether he would be able to play on Sunday. However, later it was revealed that the athlete himself had shown his intention to play against the Philadelphia Eagles. And later in the game, Parsons made it very clear that no illness, even though it’s disturbing, is stopping him from clinching a victory for his team. Well, he gets it all from his boss Mike McCarthy, whom he refers to as “a great coach” and “a great guy.”

Parsons further revealed his plans after victory saying that he will be going home and resting well. Although medicines and his chicken noodle soup helped him feel better, Parsons is still dealing with illness. However, in the game, the athlete finished the team’s 33-13 victory with two tackles and a sack.

It’s the resilience of athletes that keeps winning many hearts. Dallas Cowboys crushed the Eagles with a 20-point lead. Despite being ill, he performed well, and it seems he was taking some important guidance from his coach while walking in his footsteps, who himself was diagnosed with appendicitis.

The Cowboys coach overcame the surgery successfully!

The head coach Mike McCarthy attended the Eagles game on Sunday. Earlier in the week, he had to go to the hospital for surgery, but he recovered quickly and was able to be present in the Week 14 game. On Wednesday morning, McCarthy experienced abdominal pain, and therefore he arrived at the team facility, where he met with head athletic trainer Jim Maurer.

From there, he went to the hospital, where doctors diagnosed him with acute appendicitis, a condition that required emergency surgery. The coach then had a surgery a few hours later and was out of surgery the Wednesday afternoon. The following day, the team revealed that McCarthy was back at home and doing well. Not only this, but he made the return to the sidelines for the Cowboys game against the Eagles. Tony Pollard, the team’s running back, expressed how their coach made a cool entrance to the beats of “50 Cents” into the offense’s meeting for the first time this week. Well, McCarthy believes that he doesn’t need medical clearance to coach from the sidelines.
