The Dallas Cowboys practiced for the second time this week in preparation for their game against the New York Giants. The Cowboys are currently 16-point favorites over their NFC East foe, but they must stay focused. In related news, the team revealed on Tuesday that they had added wide receiver Martavis Bryant to their practice squad. Bryant worked out on Wednesday and was present again today.
Fortunately, the Cowboys’ injury report on Thursday remains unchanged from yesterday. Tyron Smith did not return to practice on Thursday. According to head coach Mike McCarthy, the team may choose not to practice Smith on Wednesdays and Thursdays for the rest of the season. KaVontae Turpin did not practice after sitting out with a shoulder ailment the day before and was working to the side.
Both Markquese Bell and Osa Odighizuwa were still restricted. Meanwhile, Tyler Biadasz and Jayron Kearse returned to full practice.
We have some injury updates for the New York Giants. Adoree Jackson, the team’s cornerback, did not practice Thursday because he is still in the league’s concussion protocol. In addition, both of the Giants’ starting offensive tackles were listed as injured. Evan Neal was unable to practice due to an ankle issue, while Andrew Thomas was hampered due to a hamstring injury.
