The Dallas Cowboys are placing defensive tackle Perrion Winfrey on injured reserve. The team announced the move on Monday afternoon.
Winfrey was inactive for the Cowboys last Thursday night in Philadelphia after missing practices with injury. Clearly he has some sort of back issue that the team believes merits missing time.
Per the NFL’s rules involving injured reserve, Winfrey must now miss at least four games. Given that he was on the team’s active 53-man roster they now have a spot available to do with as they please.
For what it’s worth safety Malik Hooker was not seen by members of the media in attendance at The Star on Monday.
It is unknown is there is any connection to these things or what is going on with Hooker specifically. Obviously absences can be explained by a number of different things.
Perrion Winfrey is a name that just about every Cowboys fan was excited about in the run up to the regular season. Hopefully we are able to see something from him sooner rather than later.
