The Dallas Cowboys kick off their season on Sunday Night Football versus the New York Giants. The divisional match-up is no stranger to the Week 1 slot as both teams have faced each other in the opener 11 times.
The Cowboys hold a 10-1 record over the Giants in those games and will need to overcome several key injuries if they're to continue their dominance next Sunday.
Check out this week's injury report below after one day of practice.
| Player | Injury | Wednesday | Thursday | Friday |
|---|---|---|---|---|
EDGE Sam Williams | Toe | DNP | — | — |
LG Tyler Smith | Hamstring | DNP | — | — |
S Donovan Wilson | Calf | DNP | — | — |
CB Jourdan Lewis | Foot | Full | — | — |
KEY: DNP = Did not participate | LP = Limited participation | FP = Full participation | NIR = Not injury related
Cowboys Injury Report Observations:
- If Tyler Smith misses the game, it'd be yet another game without the Cowboys' preferred offensive line setup. Last year, Tyron Smith's training camp injury kept the coaches from lining up their starting group of five.
- Wilson's tackling – which led him to a big payday this offseason – could be missed on Sunday Night Football if he doesn't come back from a calf strain suffered early in camp. The Giants' offense is likely to put a lot of stress horizontally as they seek yards after the catch with some of their playmakers. particularly RB Saquon Barkley.
- CB Jourdan Lewis was a full participant, which is huge for the defense as he didn't practice all offseason long.
