Dallas Cowboys Face New Injury Woes

With the start of the NFL season within touching distance, the Dallas Cowboys have just been hit with a new injury setback. Just as things were getting back to normal, Caelen Carson rookie cornerback joined the injury list. This is on the heels of what had already been considered a big loss for DaRon Bland, who had undergone foot surgery and will be out for a couple of months.

Dallas Cowboys Face Injury Challenges

Injury has not been a kind thing to the Dallas Cowboys. While defensive end Sam Williams saw his season written off, the pressure on the team’s secondary was not alleviated when Bland went out. Carson was next man up in place of Bland, which made his recent injury news particularly concerning.

This has raised eyebrows about Carson’s knee issue. Despite the injury report, head coach Mike McCarthy tried to downplay that concern by adding that Carson was a full participant in practice. That’s a relief since he will bear an inordinately large responsibility in the upcoming games considering the state of the Dallas Cowboys’ defense.

Cowboys’ Injury Update Boost

Fortunately, McCarthy’s update finally provides some cause for optimism. That Carson has been a full participant in practice could suggest he may well be ready to go for the season opener. And that could be just what the doctor ordered for the Dallas Cowboys, who’ll need all hands on deck if they’re to put up a legitimate fight.

Instead, the Dallas Cowboys will be relying heavily on depth as Carson steps up for them. There is also Jourdan Lewis, who will see a lot of action, given that he mostly has been a slot cornerback. These roles need balancing well since the Cowboys are also facing a very strong receiving corps from the Cleveland Browns.

While the injury situation gives cause for concern, it’s necessary to remain optimistic. Confidence in Carson and being prepared for situations that would demand his services is key. If healthy and performing well, that might minimize the impact of the injuries to other stars.

Conclusion

With Carson’s knee being a question for the Dallas Cowboys over the past week, it seems he should be all right and ready to go, which will take some weight off their shoulders. The defense will already be tested from a depth standpoint, with the second-round selection DaRon Bland ruled out for a couple of months, plus Sam Williams for the entire season. All eyes will be on just how well these challenges are taken up as the Cowboys prepare for their opener with the Cleveland Browns. If Carson can stay healthy and produce, it might soften the blow of these injuries, but undeniably, the road ahead is steep.
