- The Cowboys’ linebacker room is moving in two directions at once.
- Dee Winters has been added to the injured list and is expected to miss time after suffering an Achilles strain against the Packers, while DeMarvion Overshown is trending toward a return for Monday Night Football against the Eagles.
- The Cowboys are 2-4, and their next game comes against Philadelphia, where availability in the middle of the defense can quickly shape how the unit lines up and communicates.
- Cobie Durant is also trending toward a possible return against the Eagles after missing the last four games, giving Dallas at least a chance to get more bodies back before a primetime divisional matchup.
- Winters is out, Overshown is close, Durant is in the mix, and Philadelphia is next.
