News: Cowboys join in supporting Damar Hamlin, Pollard to return to practice

Jerry Jones believes the league acted appropriately Monday night; the Hall of Fame delays an announcement, and Pollard will resume practice. | From @ToddBrock24f7

The Cowboys joined the rest of the sports world Tuesday in their support of Buffalo safety Damar Hamlin. While the second-year player remains in a Cincinnati hospital, the league announced that Week 17’s postponed game between the Bills and Bengals will not resume this week. Owner Jerry Jones weighs in on how the league reacted to Monday night’s traumatic development. It’s also worth noting there have been no changes to the Week 18 schedule.

If the games go on as planned this weekend, the Cowboys will find themselves in a must-win situation if they have hopes of winning the NFC’s top seed, but they’ll be watching the scoreboard as they play Washington. Tony Pollard is trending toward a return as he is expected back at practice, and several other key players look to be back in the lineup for the postseason. We’re looking at the case to name Micah Parsons the league’s Defensive Player of the Year, we’re zeroing in on a possible franchise record for CeeDee Lamb. Tony Dorsett celebrates a record-setting anniversary of his own, and the Hall of Fame’s big announcement set for this week will wait.
