The Dallas Cowboys have done no wrong so far with their play on the field, but there is a bit of a cause for concern as the second half gets underway. On the Philadelphia Eagles opening drive of the third quarter, defensive tackle Johnathan Hankins was injured.
Following a run by De’Andre Switft, Hankins remained on the ground and needed to be attended to by the team’s medical staff. When Dallas was on offense following a second forced fumble and recovery, Hankins was on a cart, with his right shoe off, heading to the locker room for further evaluation.
Hopefully the injury isn’t too severe and Hankins is able to still help Dallas in the very near future. The team’s lone successful run-stuffing DT, Hankins is integral to the team’s hopes against the gauntlet of opponents on their remaining schedule and for the rest of this game.
