What Is Happening: “Playoff Shock!Cowboys’ Gilmore Faces Injury Crisis!”
Dallas Cowboys cornerback Stephon Gilmore reportedly suffered a shoulder injury during the team’s game against the Washington Commanders on Sunday, according to Cameron Burnett of CowboysWire.
The Cowboys are trying to put the final stamp on the NFC East title with a win over the Commanders on Sunday, but they are looking to remain healthy as the team prepares for a playoff game next week. It seems as if the Cowboys are in good shape to win the NFC East. They are up by a lot against the Commanders, and the Philadelphia Eagles have pulled starters against the New York Giants as they trail 24-0. The biggest thing for the Cowboys now is the status of players like Stephon Gilmore, and whether or not that will impact their status for next week.
It will be interesting to monitor comments after the game to see whether or not Gilmore’s injury could threaten his status for next week. With the Cowboys holding a significant lead over the Commanders, Dallas could likely pull any starters, especially those who are dealing with any type of ailment.
