Cowboys Safety & LB Injuries Update | Dallas Cowboys News

Cowboys’ Malik Hooker and DeMarvion Overshown are sidelined for a couple weeks—Hooker’s forearm fracture requires surgery with a two-week recovery, while Overshown’s hamstring strain also looks like a short-term setback. Coach Schottenheimer downplays long-term concerns, and the team has depth ready to step in, including Dee Winters, Jaishawn Barham, Shemar James, and practice squad elevations. Caleb Downs may see more snaps but is being kept near the line of scrimmage, with P.J. Locke also getting high praise. Despite the blow, the Cowboys remain optimistic and have big games ahead against the Commanders and Ravens in Rio.
