P.J. Locke left Dallas’ home opener with a foot injury during his second game for the Cowboys. Training staff assisted him off the field, and reports cited by Sports Illustrated said he later reached the locker room under his own power.
Locke appeared to be moving toward a tackle when he began limping before making contact with another player, according to a FOX replay. The injury came during Washington’s first possession, adding to Dallas’ defensive concerns against the Commanders.
Malik Hooker was unavailable because of a forearm injury. Locke signed a one-year contract worth $4 million with Dallas in the offseason after playing his first six NFL seasons for the Denver Broncos.
Locke made two tackles in Dallas’ loss to the New York Giants in the season opener. Sports Illustrated described the report as breaking news that could receive further updates.
