After Four Weeks, Games Missed By Key Cowboys Starters Already At Level Of Entire 2014 Season

The 2015 Cowboys will easily eclipse the 2014 Cowboys in terms of games missed by key players. Now they'll just have to hang on until reinforcements arrive, hopefully before it's too late.

For the 2014 defense, the year started off badly when Sean Lee was lost for the season with a torn ACL in OTAs, and it didn't get any better when Devonte Holloman suffered a career-ending spinal injury and rookie DeMarcus Lawrence fractured his foot - all before the season started. During the season, Morris Claiborne (12 games missed) and Justin Durant (10) would join an ever growing list of injured defensive players that eventually would see 10 key defensive contributors miss various degrees of playing time.
