I will say: given the resources available to NFL players, getting over an illness in 48 hours is fairly manageable. Chido missed Wednesday's practiced with an illness but was a full participant for Thursday and Friday #cowboyswire
I don’t think Tavon Austin, Sean Lee, David Irving or Geoff Swaim is going to play this weekend. The rest of the Cowboys’ injury concerns are trending in the right direction for Sunday.
Today's injury report looks about the same as Wednesday's, with two updates: Cole Beasley (foot) and Chidobe Awuzie (illness) were back to full participation today. Tyron Smith (neck) had limited participation again. Sean Lee (hamstring) did not practice again. #cowboyswire
Dak said he was humbled to learn that he was the Cowboys’ nominee for the Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year Award and he knows his mom would be proud of him. #cowboyswirepic.twitter.com/Zlg1sxvQPD
Dak Prescott, asked about the quotes coming out of Philly this week: “You know, Coach Garrett has a great saying. I don’t know where he got it from, but winners worry about winning and losers worry about winners. We’re focused on ourselves in this locker room.” #cowboyswire
Wednesday, Zack Martin went through his full practice in nearly a month, a good sign as he continues to work through that sprained knee. Hasn't missed a start. "His level of toughness and his desire to be out there is really second to none," Jason Garrett said. #cowboyswire
Dak Prescott is the Cowboys nominee for Walter Payton Man of the Year award. All 32 teams have a nominee - the winner will be announced Feb. 2, Super Bowl weekend. #cowboyswirehttps://t.co/LSXPJfKxQX
Official injury report: Zack Martin and Maliek Collins practiced fully; Cole Beasley, Tyron Smith, Xavier Su'a-Filo were limited; Tavon, Irving, Lee, Swaim and Awuzie (illness) did not practice. #cowboyswire
Zeke was also asked directly whether he thought it was “ridiculous” that the NFL would fine him for donating money to The Salvation Army kettle #cowboyswirepic.twitter.com/0OEbVYyCdh
Zeke Elliott said today that he was surprised by the NFL’s decision to fine him for his latest fun with The Salvation Army red kettle during the win against Washington.
Ezekiel Elliott had a heavy workload in the past three games over 11 days. "It definitely was refreshing getting that (last) weekend off. It definitely helped getting my feet back under me. It's the best I've felt on a Wednesday in a while." #cowboyswire
Jason Garrett on the team's approach: "We’re just focused on what we need to do. Our backs are to the wall. They’re always to the wall and that’s how we look at it." #cowboyswire
Asked if he plans to start howling when Leighton Vander Esch makes a big play, Jason Garrett says “Uhhh, no. I will not do that. I like when he gets to do that, though.” #cowboyswire 😂😂😂
Garrett just corrected himself. “I short changed on the Beasley answer. He sprained his foot ... we’re hopeful it’s not going to be a long term thing.” #cowboyswirehttps://t.co/T6eqnOy5dT
The Cowboys are hopeful Sean Lee can return to practice after this long weekend off. Jerry Jones said he is “almost giddy” at the thought of having Lee, LVE & Jaylon Smith all available for this home stretch #cowboyswirepic.twitter.com/UoWGULAMTA
At the rate they moved the ball against Dallas tonight, it would have taken the Saints’ offense 2.3 games to reach their average output of 417 yards/per game #cowboyswire
DeMarcus Lawrence: “I’m excited for all my guys. I’m glad that we had this battle to see what a real championship team looks like. We’ve got to move forward and go on to the next one.” #cowboyswire
Jerry Jones on snapping the Saints' 10-game win streak: "This is a changer in here. These guys, they're different cats now as they go forward." #cowboyswire
An elated Jerry Jones post-game: "This bunch, this team, won't be the same again. You win something like this against a team that well-coached, those kind of players, caliber of team like that, you know you've done it ... you've changed. This is a changer in here. #cowboyswire
Jerry Jones says Jason Garrett deserves all due praise for a win like this, because he knows what happens when the result goes the other way. #cowboyswire
