Dallas Cowboys Player Suffers Season-Ending Neck Injury
Dallas Cowboys Player Suffers Season-Ending Neck Injury originally appeared on The Spun. The Dallas Cowboys are slowly but surely losing depth in the trenches. During the start of training camp, the Cowboys lost left tackle Tyler Guyton to a knee injury. There were some concerns about him suffering an ACL injury, but the MRI results showed that it was just a bone fracture. It's too early to tell if he'll be able to suit up for Week 1, but Jerry Jones said the latest update the team received was promising. The Cowboys also lost offensive guard Rob Jones to an injury during their first padded-practice of camp. It wasn't until Aug. 8, however, that an update was issued by the team. It turns out Jones suffered a broken bone in his neck. He has been placed on season-ending injured reserve. This is a tough blow for Jones, who signed a one-year, $3.75 million contract with the Cowboys. He was expected to be the No. 2 option this season behind right guard Tyler Booker. "Entering camp, Jones was one of six projected backups on the offensive line with starting experience. He has 30 career starts in his career, more than half coming last year with the Dolphins at right guard," the Cowboys said in their press release. With Jones out for the year, the Cowboys will need other offensive linemen like Brock Hoffman and T.J. Bass to step up in the preseason. As for Jones' roster spot, the Cowboys have decided to use it on running back Malik Davis. Davis has experience in Dallas. He had 161 rushing yards and a touchdown on 38 carries during the 2022 season.

Cowboys put guard Rob Jones on injured reserve, sign RB Malik Davis to add depth
OXNARD, Calif. (AP) — The Dallas Cowboys put offensive lineman Rob Jones on season-ending injured reserve Friday. Jones had been competing with rookie first-round draft pick Tyler Booker to start at right guard before breaking a bone in his neck on July 27. Jones told the team's website last month he was looking at a two-to-three month recovery, but the decision to put him on IR ends any chance of a return this season. Jones signed a one-year contract in free agency to give the Cowboys added depth in their reconfigured offensive line. The 26-year-old Jones played his first four seasons in Miami after signing with the Dolphins as an undrafted free agent, starting all 17 games last season with 30 starts for his career. Booker, who was selected 12th overall, was the favorite to start, but Jones had been performing well in the first week of training camp and would likely have been a key reserve as the Cowboys look for improvement up front in their first season under new head coach Brian Schottenheimer. The Cowboys signed running back Malik Davis on Friday to take Jones' roster spot in an effort to add numbers at another depleted position group. Miles Sanders has been out with a knee injury, rookie Jaydon Blue sustained a lower-body injury in practice on Thursday, and Deuce Vaughn just returned from a hamstring injury. Davis has familiarity with the Cowboys' offense, having appeared in 13 games during the 2022 and 2023 seasons and spent the past two years on Dallas' practice squad. Given the injuries elsewhere at running back, the 26-year-old Davis could play in the Cowboys' preseason opener against the Los Angeles Rams on Saturday. ___ AP NFL:
