Cowboys’ DeMarvion Overshown questionable to return with hamstring injury as Dallas suffers big blow

The Dallas Cowboys have an injury concern to monitor involving linebacker DeMarvion Overshown during their Week 1 matchup against the New York Giants.

Reporters watching the game noticed Overshown receiving attention from the Cowboys’ training staff before attempting to work his way back into the action. The linebacker later headed into the blue medical tent after appearing frustrated while trying to continue.

Overshown’s status has now become more concerning, with NFL reporter Josina Anderson reporting that the Cowboys linebacker is questionable to return with a hamstring injury. “PBA: DAL, Overshown, hamstring questionable,” the reporter wrote on X.

The update provides the first indication of what Overshown is dealing with after he initially received medical attention on the sideline.

Earlier, Overshown was seen attempting to jog it out along the sideline. However, reporters noticed that he appeared frustrated each time he tried to continue. The Cowboys’ training staff eventually took Overshown’s helmet, and he headed into the blue medical tent for further evaluation.

Cowboys face uncertainty with Overshown

The hamstring issue is worth monitoring closely for Dallas because Overshown is an important piece of Christian Parker‘s defense. His athleticism and ability to cover ground give the Cowboys valuable versatility at linebacker.

For now, Overshown remains questionable to return, according to Anderson. The Cowboys will have to wait for further evaluation before determining whether he can return to the field against New York.

Any further update on Overshown’s status could significantly impact Dallas’ defensive plans for the remainder of the game.
