The Cowboys don’t want to shut down wide receiver Dez Bryant, but his foot and ankle injuries aren’t leaving them much option this weekend.
Bryant is out of practice again on Friday, making a clean sweep of the week for the wideout. Bryant has been listed as doubtful to play against the Bills as a result.
Owner Jerry Jones and coach Jason Garrett have each said that they wouldn’t preemptively take Bryant, who missed five games after breaking a bone in his foot in the season opener, out of the lineup for the last two weeks of the season. Wide receiver Cole Beasley is listed as questionable, which may further limit the available targets for quarterback Kellen Moore in his first regular season start.
The Bills haven’t released their final injury report for the game, but seem likely to be down one of their offensive starters as well. Running back LeSean McCoy remained out of practice on Friday with a knee injury.
