In a few short days, the Dallas Cowboys will take the field against the New York Giants. However, this week the Cowboys received some big injury news at the worst possible time. Tyler Smith had to go on IR with a designation to return.
With Smith out, it reshapes the Cowboys’ offensive line, and they are going to look to fill the void left by the Pro Bowl guard as he is set to miss at least the first four games of the season. Dallas moved Nick Leverett up from the practice squad, then added former first-round pick Laken Tomlinson to the practice squad.
Fortunately for the Cowboys everyone else is relative healthy and off to a positive start for the first injury report of the week.
Jonathan Bullard (groin) was a full participant at practice, and Ajani Cornelius (knee) was a limited participant. For the Giants, they are looking healthy to start the week. Shelby Harris (achilles), Theo Johnson (shoulder), and Bryan Hudson (knees) were full participants today. In even better news for the Giants, they had two of their key players also listed as full participants. Malik Nabers (knee) and Andrew Thomas (knee) were a full go today, putting them on track to face the Cowboys.
