Dallas Cowboys: Three Potential Options to Replace WR James Washington

The Dallas Cowboys suffered a blow at training camp on Monday as wide receiver James Washington was carted off the field and later diagnosed with a broken foot. While the injury is not considered season-ending, Washington is still looking at a roughly 6-10 week absence.

With fellow wideout Michael Gallup (ACL) expected to miss the first few weeks of the regular season, Washington was slated to have a meaningful role as the team’s No. 2/No .3 receiver. Instead, Dallas is left with a gaping hole at the position, at least in the short term.

The loss of the 26-year-old essentially locks rookie Jalen Tolbert into a starting position early on, which isn’t ideal.
