The Cowboys lost Amari Cooper, their leading receiver, via trade this offseason and Michael Gallup was still recovering from an ACL tear, so they turned to James Washington for the Week 1 start job.
It’s possible that the injury isn’t serious. You don’t want to see the cart being pulled out for a player.
