The Dallas Cowboys defense has been the worst in the league by yards allowed/game through five weeks, allowing 412 on average per bout.
In fact, arguably the only reason they are lying at .500 five weeks into the season is due to the very impressive play of quarterback, Dak Prescott; who ranks second in the league so far this year in total passing yards; and the surprise explosion of free agent pickup, Javonte Williams, who is currently third in the league in rushing with 447 yards.
However, the Cowboys could be set to receive a boost for their run defense, as inside linebacker, DeMarvion Overshown, is believed to tracking to come back to the team by November, according to Jordan Schultz.
DeMarvion Overshown Close To A Return After Devastating 2024 Knee Injury
“Sources: Cowboys standout LB DeMarvion Overshown is nearing a return to practice, and the team expects to open his window later this month with the goal of having him playing by November.” Schultz wrote on Friday afternoon.
“Overshown tore his ACL, PCL, and MCL last year amid a breakout season in which he recorded 84 tackles, 5 sacks, 1 INT, 1 FF, 1 FR, 8 TFLs, and 1 defensive TD.”
“Heâs worked relentlessly to get back â and his return is close. Massive news for Dallas.”
Having suffered that brutal knee tear against the Cincinnati Bengals in December 2024, it was believed by many after the game – including then head coach, Mike McCarthy, that the third year linebacker could end up having to miss the entirety of the 2025 season.
But now, having rehabbed well and gotten far further than where many thought he would be at this point in his recovery, the Texas alum and former third round is on the brink of making his long-awaited return after almost a year out.
