Cowboys release final injury report ahead last regular season game

The Dallas Cowboys have released their final injury report ahead of their last game of the regular season. Dallas is set to kick off against the Eagles at 8:15 p.m. ET on Saturday in Philadelphia.

The Cowboys and Eagles last met in Week 3, with Dallas winning by a score of 41-21.

Both teams have already clinched their spot in the playoffs. With that in mind, it wouldn’t be at all surprising to see star players take on lesser workloads. The Eagles have already ruled out running back Miles Sanders (hand) after he missed practice all week.

Philadelphia guard Landon Dickerson (thumb) and offensive tackle Lane Johnson (knee) are both questionable. Below is the full injury report for the Cowboys in their last game of the regular season.

Dallas Cowboys injury report for last regular season game

Questionable — CB Trevon Diggs (illness), S Jayron Kearse (hamstring), RB Tony Pollard (foot), S Donovan Wilson (illness).

Both Trevon Diggs and Donovan Wilson are questionable with non-COVID-related illnesses. With Jayron Kearse is also dealing with a hamstring injury, so the secondary could be especially shorthanded. Kearse has practiced in limited fashion all week, while Diggs and Wilson were just added to the injury report Thursday.

Running back Tony Pollard also logged limited practices all week leading up to the game. The Cowboys did not practice on Thursday, so statuses for that day are an estimation.

Probable — RB Ezekiel Elliott (knee).

Elliott has been dealing with a knee injury of late but practiced in full both Tuesday and Wednesday. The star running back has carried the ball just nine times in each of the past two games. With Pollard’s status in question, Elliott’s health is a big boost for Dallas.

Expect him to receive a few more carries as he leads the backfield. He has rushed for 915 yards (seventh in the NFL) and 10 touchdowns (sixth) so far this season.
