Trevon Diggs, Donovan Wilson questionable for Cowboys finale with illness

While it does not appear that either Diggs or Wilson tested positive for COVID, they join the list of players who aren’t at full strength. | From @ToddBrock24f7

During his Thursday media briefing, Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy announced that left tackle Tyron Smith and cornerback Anthony Brown have entered the COVID protocol after positive tests for the virus. McCarthy then alluded to several players who “are sick, but they have not tested positive” for COVID-19.

Apparently cornerback Trevon Diggs and safety Donovan Wilson are in that group. Both missed practice on Thursday, and both are listed as questionable for Saturday night’s season finale in Philadelphia.

Running back Tony Pollard (foot) is also questionable, as is safety Jayron Kearse (hamstring). Both were considered “limited” in the work done for the day.

Rookie linebacker Micah Parsons is already on the COVID watchlist after testing positive; McCarthy confirmed that he is out for Saturday.

The latest additions to the injury report certainly don’t paint a picture of a Cowboys squad ready to go “full-bore” into Week 18, as team executive vice president Stephen Jones suggested in a radio interview earlier this week.

Diggs leads the NFL in interceptions this season with 11. With one more, he would set a new franchise record. Kearse, Parsons, and Brown are the team’s top three tacklers in 2021.

The outcome of the regular-season finale will have no bearing on the division standings, with both Dallas and Philadelphia locked into playoff berths. Only postseason seedings are at stake, and even they depend on the results of several other conference games.

The Cowboys may not have intended for this weekend’s game to be on par with a preseason tilt, featuring backups versus backups in a contest that both sides simply want to survive with no further injuries. But that seems to be what it’s turning into.

Cowboys activate Malik Hooker, Trysten Hill off COVID list; sign new LB to practice squad

Wednesday also saw Tyron Smith at practice, Noah Brown’s 21-day return window open, and JaQuan Hardy and Brandon Smith return from COVID. | From @ToddBrock24f7

Wednesday saw multiple developments on the Cowboys roster, with several notable players being upgraded as the team prepares to host Arizona on Sunday afternoon. It’s a game the Cowboys need to win to maintain hope of earning the NFC’s No. 1 seed entering the postseason.

Safety Malik Hooker and defensive tackle Trysten Hill were activated off the Reserve/COVID list; both took part in practice Wednesday. Hooker was placed on the list Dec. 23; Hill had been in protocol since Dec. 18.

Left tackle Tyron Smith participated in individual drills, lending further credence to Stephen Jones’s prediction to a Dallas radio station on Monday that he would make his return in Week 17 after sitting out the past two games with an ankle injury.

Running back JaQuan Hardy and wide receiver Brandon Smith have been taken off the Practice Squad/COVID list and are back on the practice squad.

Wide receiver Noah Brown has been designated for return from a groin injury; he’ll begin his 21-day observation window and can be moved to the active roster within that time.

The Cowboys have added linebacker Devante Bond to the practice squad. That signing comes after losing Francis Bernard to a groin injury against Washington and then the COVID watchlist the next day. Bond is just the team’s fifth healthy linebacker, behind Micah Parsons, Leighton Vander Esch, Keanu Neal, and Luke Gifford.

Bond was a sixth-round draft pick by the Buccaneers in 2016 out of Oklahoma. He logged 36 tackles over three-plus seasons in Tampa in a tenure that included injuries and a suspension, then was released partway into the 2019 campaign. Chicago signed Bond in late 2019; he bounced on and off their practice squad until January 2021.

Bond practiced Wednesday and wore No. 51.
