The 2022 NFL regular season is wrapping up and the Dallas Cowboys will be facing the Tennessee Titans for Week 17′s Thursday Night Football.

The Titans have the most number of injured players in the NFL, and they will rest some of their starters as this particular game has no bearing on their standings in the league.

No matter who wins on Thursday night, they will be battling the Jacksonville Jaguars on Week 18 for victory in the AFC South. Judging from the long list of players that they have ruled out for the game, they have chosen to let their banged up players recuperate to prepare for the more pivotal game next week, instead of trying to put an end to a five-game losing streak and get a much-needed morale boost.

Pollard and Parsons questionable

Dallas will once again be missing linebacker Leighton Vander Esch who has been declared out for the game with a neck injury. Two of their stars, running back Tony Pollard and linebacker Micah Parsons have both been listed as questionable. However, Pollard did not practice all week while Parsons was a limited participant. Both could see some playing time if they are seen to be in better shape in time for the game.
