I think that\u00b4s very realistic.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">Overshown missed all of his rookie year in 2023 after tearing the ACL in his left knee in a preseason game. The latest injury came in his first game since a\u00a0spectacular 23-yard interception return\u00a0for a touchdown in a 27-20 victory over the New York Giants on Thanksgiving.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">&#8220;DeMarvion is getting ready to have a big surgery in front of him,&#8221; McCarthy said of the procedure planned this week. &#8220;His physical and football talent speaks for itself. He\u00b4s such a bright light. He\u00b4s got a great, infectious personality &#8211; a tough young man. He is definitely going to be missed. He&#8217;s got a long road of rehab in front of him.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">The former Texas standout, drafted in the third round last year, was second on the team to star pass rusher Micah Parsons with five sacks when he went down.<\/p>\n<div class=\"artSplitter mol-img-group\">\n<div>\n<div class=\"image-wrap fff-pic\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"i-cbab1a031107880a\" class=\"blkBorder img-share\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2024\/12\/11\/01\/wire-93023029-1733880288-334_634x422.jpg\" alt=\"Dallas Cowboys linebacker DeMarvion Overshown is helped off the field after being injured during the second half of an NFL football game against the Cincinnati Bengals, Monday, Dec. 9, 2024, in Arlington, Texas.

(AP Photo\/Gareth Patterson)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<div class=\"mol-fe-related-replace ccox\" data-track-module=\"related-replace\">\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">The December timing of Overshown&#8217;s injury means rehab is likely to extend past training camp and into the regular season next year, after he turns 25.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">Parsons was emotional when asked about Overshown after the Cincinnati game.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">&#8220;I cried,&#8221; he said. &#8220;It\u00b4s like my little bro, bro. He doesn\u00b4t deserve that either. Just to understand what he\u00b4s going to go through and to be there for him physically, mentally. It\u00b4s just so challenging because of the year he was having. I really just don\u00b4t think that\u00b4s fair either.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">The loss of Overshown comes with defensive end DeMarcus Lawrence close to return from a foot injury that has sidelined him since Week 4. But the Cowboys (5-8) are\u00a0all but out of the playoffs as they prepare to visit Carolina (3-10) on Sunday.<\/p>\n<div data-mol-fe-article-body=\"true\">\n<div class=\"artSplitter mol-img-group\">\n<div>\n<div class=\"image-wrap fff-pic\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"i-c71cd179b234525b\" class=\"blkBorder img-share\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2024\/12\/11\/01\/wire-93023033-1733880293-606_634x422.jpg\" alt=\"Dallas Cowboys linebacker DeMarvion Overshown is helped off the field after being injured during the second half of an NFL football game against the Cincinnati Bengals, Monday, Dec. 9, 2024, in Arlington, Texas.
