Football
It has been a long time since we have seen the Dallas Cowboys play football in general, but that is about to come to an end with the team scheduled to report to training camp in Oxnard on Sunday. There will be eyes on a lot of things, and thanks to an update from one player specifically, a bit more attention will be paid to number 13 on the team.
On Saturday afternoon linebacker DeMarvion Overshown took to his Instagram story to share what seems to be a positive health update. Overshown noted that he received good news from the doctor and pledged to be “active” this season.
The degree that “active” means in Overshown’s words is obviously unknown, but it is logical to assume that he may mean it in its most literal sense. If that is the case, then he is declaring that he will be playing at some point in 2025.
To be frank, this would be somewhat of a medical miracle (something Overshown seems to be noting in his gratitude to the team’s medical staff). He tore his ACL, MCL and PCL back in December against the Cincinnati Bengals. Recovering from that in general is a steep hill to climb, but doing so in under a year from the point of injury would be astounding.
It is important to maintain patience here and for the Cowboys to not rush Overshown back to the field. He showed throughout the time he played in 2024, after he missed all of his rookie season due to injury, that he can absolutely be a foundational part of this defense moving forward.
