Cowboys injury report: Ferguson, Lamb, and Diggs limited Thursday
This week’s game against the Baltimore Ravens is pivotal for the Ravens and the Dallas Cowboys. Baltimore is 0-2 heading into Sunday’s game against the Cowboys. After Week 3, they face the Buffalo Bills and Cincinnati Bengals. Baltimore is desperate to get something in the win column or could face a possible 0-5 start to the season.
If the Cowboys win Sunday, they have a very favorable matchup on a short week against the New York Giants, who they have dominated, winning 12 of their 14 meetings. By late Thursday night next week, the Cowboys could be in sole possession of first place in the NFC East. Yet, as we know, health is a key factor in that outcome. Here is where the Cowboys stand regarding injuries after this week’s second day of practice.
