Overview

• Clowney was arrested Sept. 12 in Rock Hill, S.C., on misdemeanor trespassing and failure-to-identify charges stemming from a parking-lot dispute at an apartment complex.
• Police reports say he was told he could not park there during a nearby high school game, became argumentative and refused to provide identification before being taken to jail.
• He signed with Dallas on Sept. 15 to bolster edge depth after the Micah Parsons trade, and he began practicing this week to learn the scheme.
• Stephen Jones said Friday the club is leaning toward Clowney not playing against the Bears, framing his status as a game-time decision based on readiness.
• A team spokesman said the arrest will have no impact on play-time decisions, and Clowney called the incident a big misunderstanding that he plans to dispute.
