Overview

  • Caelen Carson suffered a hyperextended knee in the first padded practice and will miss 4–6 weeks of training camp action.
  • Monday’s reported injuries to Rob Jones, Parris Campbell, Brevyn Spann-Ford and Tyler Guyton further drained depth across the roster.
  • The Cowboys signed veteran cornerback Christian Matthew to bolster a depleted secondary.
  • Wide receiver Kelvin Harmon was released to open a roster spot for Matthew.
  • Backup and practice-squad players are being elevated into larger roles to navigate injury shortages.
