Cowboys put focus on health as hope grows for improbable rally to playoff contention

Associated Press  

ARLINGTON, Texas — With a mini-bye plus a day, the Dallas Cowboys have a chance to get a little healthier, though they know any improbable rally to playoff contention will have to be without star quarterback Dak Prescott. A defense that has looked much more dynamic since star pass rusher Micah Parsons’ return from an ankle injury might get defensive end DeMarcus Lawrence back against the Bengals. “I’m looking forward to that.” What’s working DeMarvion Overshown’s dynamic 23-yard interception return for a touchdown helped the Cowboys finish plus-2 in turnover margin for the second consecutive game. Injuries CB Josh Butler, a 28-year-old who made his NFL debut this season and played a big role in last weekend’s 34-26 victory at Washington, tore an ACL in the first half against the Giants.. Special teamer Juanyeh Thomas also injured a knee and is expected to miss at least a couple of weeks.. Rookie LT Tyler Guyton said he has a high ankle sprain, which probably means Chuma Edoga’s first start will be against the Bengals after he made his season debut against the Giants.
