Cowboys continue to wait for Darren McFadden

The Cowboys saw running back Lance Dunbar leave Wednesday’s practice with an ankle injury, but the team doesn’t think that it’s a particularly serious setback.

It does draw attention to the fact that the team isn’t flush with backfield options right now. Ryan Williams is on injured reserve and Darren McFadden remains on the physically unable to perform list with hamstring woes that offer a reminder of how many injuries he’s dealt with over his career. McFadden offered an update on Wednesday that makes it sound like he’s not far off.

“I did a little straight-line running and a little cutting, so I got a good feel for it,” McFadden said, via the Dallas Morning News.
