A busy news day taught everyone they shouldn’t ignore signs from their bodies, no matter how important the task at hand. By being proactive, the Cowboys have a chance to still have their head coach on the sidelines Sunday. The team also welcomed back a familiar face to the 53-man roster who could open things up even more for Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott.

The signing of Shaq Leonard isn’t the only addition Philadelphia will have on Sunday night but is that enough to stop a disturbing trend for them? As for Dallas, the health of their roster is surprising this late in the season. Speaking of a late season, the NFL released the Pro Bowl van voting numbers and more than a handful of Cowboys lead their position groups. All that and more on this edition of Cowboys news and notes.
