We are inching closer to opening day in the NFL and Week 1 for the Dallas Cowboys at the Meadowlands against the New York Giants. In their first injury report of the season, the Cowboys have a few notable names listed among those absent from practice on Wednesday.
Offensive lineman Tyler Smith sustained a hamstring injury on Monday and was cited by the team as a DNP. Smith underwent a cautionary MRI, and the team is optimistic of his chances to play, but it is an injury to monitor. Donovan Wilson also worked on the side with trainers.
