As expected, the Dallas Cowboys are opening training camp with multiple high-profile players rehabbing from injuries.
Ahead of Tuesday's opening practice, the team designated three players to open camp on the Physically Unable to Perform (PUP) list, per multiple reports: CB Trevon Diggs, LB DeMarvion Overshown, and CB Josh Butler.
Additionally, third-round rookie cornerback Shavon Revel was placed on the non-football injury list.
Though Overshown is expected to miss most of the regular season, opening training camp on PUP isn't all bad news for Diggs and Butler.
The timing places them on the Active/PUP list, and means they can be activated at any point during training camp. In contrast, landing on Reserve/PUP during training camp means the player must miss a minimum of four games of the regular season.
So while they'll be working to the side early in camp, they could still rejoin team's practices before the end of training camp and the preseason. The same applies for Revel. Earlier reports indicated the rookie will be ready to go at some point of camp.
DeMarvion Overshown receives positive injury update
Now, despite Overshown being expected to miss playing time, a recent report from NFL insider Jeremy Fowler indicated a recent check-up "reinforced" his plans to play this season.
Overshown had a positive check-up with Dr. Neal ElAttrache last week that reinforced his plans to play this season. He will likely start regular season on PUP, hoping for midseason return but that’s still open ended based on recovery.- ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler on X (@JFowlerESPN)

Overshown has pointed toward the Cowboys' Thanksgiving matchup versus the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 13 as his goal to return.
The Cowboys will hold their first practice camp practice on Tuesday, July 22. Hopefully, the team's injury list doesn't grow much longer as players take the practice field.
