The Cowboys listed 15 players on their estimated injury report on Monday.
Left tackle Tyler Guyton (ankle) and linebacker DeMarvion Overshown (concussion) did not practice.
Overshown left Sunday’s game against the Chargers after being diagnosed with his head injury. Guyton has missed the past four games with his injury.
The Cowboys estimated left guard Tyler Booker (ankle), cornerback Josh Butler (knee), cornerback Caelen Carson (hamstring), wide receiver Ryan Flournoy (knee), running back Phil Mafah (shoulder), defensive end Payton Turner (ribs), wide receiver KaVontae Turpin (shoulder), running back Javonte Williams (neck), defensive tackle Quinnen Williams (neck) and safety Donovan Wilson (hip) as limited. Quinnen Williams missed Sunday’s game with his injury, and Flournoy left the game early with his.
Cornerback Shavon Revel (knee), offensive guard T.J. Bass (thumb) and offensive tackle Nate Thomas (shoulder) were full participants.
The Cowboys defense got torn apart again on Sunday and team owner Jerry Jones fielded questions about defensive coordinator Matt Eberflus’ future with the team after the 34-17 loss to the Chargers.
Dallas came into the game ranked 31st in the league in points allowed, but Jones said he is not thinking about making any change before the team plays its final two games of the season. He said Eberflus will be evaluated once the season is over and took issue with the idea that it would be a difficult decision for him to make.
“I might not count it as difficult,” Jones said, via Patrik Walker of the team’s website. “It’s certainly something that we have to do. And that is to look at the entire year and look at what our options are, and how to correct it so we’re not here at the same time next year. Now, that’s not uncommon to evaluate at this time of the year — your entire coaching staff. And, obviously, the target is on him because of our statistical, as well as actual play on the defensive side of the ball, but that goes with it.”
Eberflus was a Cowboys assistant earlier in his career and moved on to a stint as the head coach in Chicago. He was fired during the 2024 season and was a key hire by Brian Schottenheimer after Schottenheimer got bumped up to the head coaching role this offseason. Jones’ answer does little to suggest that a second season is in store for Eberflus, however.
The Chargers took care of business with a 34-17 victory over the Cowboys on Sunday afternoon.
Los Angeles moved to 11-4, while Dallas fell to 6-8-1 with a third consecutive loss. The Cowboys were eliminated from playoff contention with the Eagles’ victory on Saturday night.
The Cowboys trailed only 21-17 at halftime, but the Chargers outscored them 13-0 in the second half and outgained them 219 to 129.
Justin Herbert completed 23 of 29 passes for 300 yards and two touchdowns. He was happy to have wide receiver Quentin Johnston back as the wide receiver made four receptions for 104 yards and a touchdown, a dandy one-hander that went for 23 yards to open the Chargers’ scoring.
Ladd McConkey caught a 25-yard touchdown.
Herbert ran for a 1-yard touchdown on a quarterback push play, and Omarion Hampton had a 5-yard touchdown run. Hampton ran for 85 yards on 16 carries.
Dak Prescott was 21-of-30 for 244 yards and two touchdowns before Joe Milton finished in mop-up duty. George Pickens caught seven passes for 130 yards and a touchdown, and CeeDee Lamb went over 1,000 yards again with 51 yards on six catches.
The Texans’ inactive list offers mostly good news.
Running back Nick Chubb (ribs), cornerback Derek Stingley (oblique) and wide receiver Christian Kirk (illness) are dressed for Sunday’s game against the Raiders. All three were listed as questionable.
Chubb and rookie Jawhar Jordan will share carries in Woody Marks’ absence. Jordan made his NFL debut last week and rushed for 101 yards.
The Texans’ inactives are linebacker Azeez Al-Shaair (ankle/knee), wide receiver Braxton Berrios, quarterback Graham Mertz, Marks (ankle), cornerback Ameer Speed, defensive end Solomon Byrd and offensive tackle Jarrett Kingston. Mertz is the emergency third quarterback.
The Raiders’ inactives are running back Zamir White, quarterback Aidan O’Connell, cornerback Darnay Holmes, tight end Ian Thomas and defensive tackle Brodric Martin. O’Connell will serve as the emergency third quarterback.
The Cowboys will play the second half without two of their key players.
They have ruled out linebacker DeMarvion Overshown (concussion) and wide receiver Ryan Flournoy (knee).
Overshown was injured on the Chargers’ first offensive series on the same play Chargers left tackle Jamaree Salyer went out with a hamstring injury. Salyer also is ruled out.
Flournoy caught a 5-yard touchdown pass and had a second 5-yard touchdown pass negated by a holding penalty on left guard Tyler Smith. He finishes his day with two catches for 18 yards.
The Chargers list cornerback Donte Jackson (groin) as questionable to return.
Los Angeles kicked a field goal on the first drive of the second half, increasing its lead to 24-17.
