The Dallas Cowboys are gearing up for a crucial game against the New York Giants on Thursday, and their practice report on Tuesday provided some insight into the team’s health situation. Defensive end DeMarcus Lawrence, despite nursing a shoulder injury, continued to participate in a limited capacity. Lawrence, who played a significant number of snaps in the previous game, is clearly a key player for the Cowboys.
On the defensive side of the ball, safety Markquese Bell and cornerback Caelen Carson were notable absences from practice. Bell’s ankle injury forced him to leave the game early on Sunday, while Carson played through his shoulder issue. Their availability for Thursday’s game remains uncertain, which could be a cause for concern for the Cowboys’ secondary.
In more positive news, cornerback Trevon Diggs, receiver CeeDee Lamb, defensive tackle Mazi Smith, and tight end John Stephens were all full participants in practice. This is certainly a boost for the Cowboys as they prepare to face the Giants.
Despite the injuries and uncertainties surrounding some key players, the Cowboys are staying focused on the task at hand. As head coach Mike McCarthy commented, “We’re taking it one day at a time and making sure we do everything we can to have our guys ready for Thursday night.”
The team’s resilience and determination will be put to the test as they look to bounce back from a tough loss to the Ravens. The Cowboys know that every game is crucial at this point in the season, and they will be doing everything in their power to secure a much-needed win against the Giants.
