Overshown

Overshown remains absent with his hamstring injury. Recent acquisition Joey Porter Jr is active after missing Week 5 with an illness. The Cowboys look to shake off an ugly Week 5 loss against the surging Packers on Sunday Night Football.

Every player on here was ruled out before the weekend. The Cowboys continue have lost several key defenders through the early part of the season and will now have to find a way to slow a Houston offense that will have Nico Collins back for the first time in two weeks.

Overshown will miss a third straight game with his hamstring injury, and has “a little ways to go” before returning to the field. Overshown was injured in the Cowboys’ Week 1 game against the Giants. We’ll see if he can get on the field for Week 5’s game against the Buccaneers, but with that game being on a Thursday night, it wouldn’t be a surprise if we learned Overshown would miss a fourth straight game.

Durant, Hooker, and Overshown were all ruled out before the weekend, so there’s nothing surprising here. The Cowboys are down four key players on the defensive side of the ball, which could make for a big day for Lamar Jackson and the Ravens.

No surprise, as he was expected to be ruled out following Wednesday. The Cowboys also ruled out CB Cobie Durant, S Malik Hooker and S P.J. Locke, each of whom are dealing with long-term ailments.

Overshown will now, apparently, miss his second game this season. He will be missed. The Cowboys’ defense is tasked with stymying the Ravens’ top-tier rushing attack, led by RB Derrick Henry and QB Lamar Jackson.

Nothing surprising here, as Overshown and Hooker were both ruled out before the weekend, leaving the Cowboys without two starters on the defensive side of the ball. The Cowboys and Commanders are both looking to pick up a win this weekend to avoid starting 0-2 what projects to be a tough NFC East.

The Cowboys are already without fellow starter Malik Hooker because of a broken bone in his wrist. Overshown is expected to miss a week or two with a hamstring strain. After getting decimated by Jaxon Dart in Week 1, the Cowboys will now have to face the Commanders without two of their starters on defense. This is as good as bounce-back spots get for the Washington offense.

Flournoy is dealing with a knee injury he suffered in Week 16 against the Chargers. He failed to get in a full practice on a short week and is now ruled out, making KaVontae Turpin the Cowboys’ No. 3 wide receiver for the week. The Cowboys also declared LB DeMarvion Overshown, CB Caelen Carson, RB Jaydon Blue, DT Jay Toia, and DT Perrion Winfrey inactive for Week 17 against the Commanders. Overshown is out with a concussion suffered in Week 16.

It was the last day the Cowboys could conceivably activate him after designating him to return three weeks ago, so we don’t know if Overshown is actually game-ready yet. The Cowboys were on bye this past week, and Overshown was still picking up limited practices ahead of their Week 9 game against the Cardinals. Dallas also activated rookie CB Shavon Revel (knee) from the non-football injury list — he faces much the same uncertainty. Both of these players should be boosts for a beleaguered Cowboys back seven. When they’ll actually debut is a question we don’t have an answer for yet.
