Team news: Dallas Cowboys | Page 26

Broncos RB Melvin Gordon (hip) is listed as doubtful for Week 13's game against the Kansas City Chiefs.

A tough loss for the Broncos, but bigger news for Williams. Look for the rookie to lead the Broncos backfield comfortably.

The Philadelphia Eagle will be without RB Jordan Howard (knee) for a second straight game, while RB Boston Scott (illness) and QB Jalen Hurts (ankle) are questionable.

Related Players: Gardner Minshew, Kenneth Gainwell Jr., Miles Sanders

Minshew took first-team reps for some of the week in case Hurts is out, which is no bueno. Scott should play but if he does not, Sanders should see majority of the running back work.

Eagles QB Jalen Hurts and RB Miles Sanders were limited Wednesday due to ankle injuries. RB Boston Scott and WR DeVonta Smith missed practice with non-COVID illnesses.

Scott and Smith should be good, so the injuries to monitor are Hurts and Sanders.

Ezekiel Elliott (knee), CeeDee Lamb (concussion), Tarell Basham (chest) were all full participants in today’s practice.

Cedrick Wilson (ankle) did not practice for second consecutive day.

Good news for the Cowboys, especially with Lamb and the news Cooper may have to miss Thursday's game because of COVID symptoms. Machota pointed out the Cowboys WRs vs. Saints could be Lamb, Gallup, Brown, Turner and Fehoko.

Cowboys WR Amari Cooper (COVID-19) is back in building but "still not feeling the best," coach Mike McCarthy said. Still has a cough. "To be determined" whether he'll practice today. "My gut would be if he doesn't practice tomorrow, I don't see him going to the game."

Cooper is not vaccinated and still has symptoms. He was required to miss two games over a 10-day period but because he's still not feeling well he could miss a third game as a result. With Lamb back in the fold after a concussion, he would likely be the team's WR1. Gallup is more of a big play threat while Wilson could be more of a WR2-type with Brown also mixing in.

Wide receiver CeeDee Lamb was also a full participant on Monday.

Lamb did not clear the concussion protocol in time to play on Thanksgiving, but he is set to return to action against the Saints. Also scheduled to return is Cooper so the WR group should be at full strength for Thursday's game.

Cowboys WR CeeDee Lamb (concussion) is expected back for the Cowboys in Week 13 against the Saints.

Lamb missed Thursday's game against the Raiders after leaving Week 11 against the Chiefs with his concussion and the short week kept him from playing on Thanksgiving. The Cowboys play again on Thursday but it amounts to a normal week for them in terms of game prep. Sunday will be what is normally a Wednesday during a game week, so the Cowboys will be back on the practice field today.

Eagles HC Nick Sirianni told reporters Friday that RB Jordan Howard (knee) will not play Week 12 against the New York Jets.

Howard's absence opens the workload for Miles Sanders and maybe some carries for Boston Scott. It also means that Kenneth Gainwell will probably be active.
