Overview
- Overshown practiced for the first time in 317 days, working in individual drills and wearing a knee brace he called an accessory rather than a necessity.
- The Cowboys opened his 21-day return-to-practice window on Oct. 20, with a decision due on activating him to the 53-man roster or keeping him on PUP by its end.
- He said he is aiming to debut on Monday Night Football in Week 11 against the Raiders, when he would become the first Cowboys player to wear No. 0 in a game.
- Head coach Brian Schottenheimer expressed optimism but said there will be a measured ramp-up as Overshown builds back to game speed.
- Dallas’ defense ranks near the bottom of the league this season, heightening interest in Overshown’s potential impact after a 2024 campaign that featured 95 tackles, five sacks and a pick-six before his injury.
