Cowboys Open 21-Day Practice Window for LB DeMarvion Overshown

The 21-day clock gives Dallas until mid-November to decide on activation after his multiligament knee surgery.

Overview

  • Overshown signaled the move with a "T-21" post on X as team officials and NFL reporters confirmed his return-to-practice designation.
  • Under NFL rules, the Cowboys have roughly until Nov. 12 to activate him or place him on season-ending IR, per the team website.
  • Executive Stephen Jones said the club will likely use the full three weeks because Overshown missed offseason work and needs a ramp-up.
  • Coaches expressed guarded optimism for a post–Week 10 bye return, with Week 11 at the Raiders viewed as a potential target pending practice evaluations.
  • Overshown, 25, tore his ACL, MCL and PCL on Dec. 9, 2024 after posting 90 tackles and five sacks, and his comeback is viewed as a key boost for a struggling defense following Micah Parsons’ departure.
