FRISCO – The Dallas Cowboys have had their season rocked by injuries, and in truth, it started back in training camp when Sam Williams suffered an ACL injury. Since then, it’s all been downhill.
Dak Prescott, Micah Parsons, Brandin Cooks, Zack Martin, Trevon Diggs, DeMarcus Lawrence, DaRon Bland, Juanyeh Thomas, Jake Ferguson, Tyler Smith, Asim Richards, Caelen Carson, Markquese Bell, Tyler Guyton, and now DeMarvion Overshown have all missed time this season.
Yes, “this is football” and injuries are a part of it and all of that. But … Whoever has that voodoo doll has been working overtime.
And now we know more about the Cowboys getting needled as on Saturday they made moves involving five guys.
Pro Bowl CB Trevon Diggs is not only out … he is also now set to have season-ending knee surgery, per Jay Glazer of FOX Sports.
Diggs will now not be traveling with Cowboys to the Panthers game..
Also, CB Andrew Booth and C Dakoda Shepley are called up. And LB DeMarvion Overshown moves to IR.
(Rookie center Cooper Beebe is out with a concussion.)
So … some kids might be playing at Carolina on Sunday for the strugglimg Cowboys.
While it can be hard to look for positives in such a dark season, that’s one thing that the franchise can hang its hat on … small consolation in a 5-8 season though it is.
