News

  • Finally back in sack column

    Armstrong recorded four tackles (three solo) including 1.0 sacks during Sunday's 20-19 win at New Orleans.

    Analysis: Armstrong got to Jake Haener late in the first quarter to log his first sack since Week 5 versus the Browns. He'll be looking to keep up the positive momentum in Week 16 versus the Eagles.

  • Will suit up against Chicago

    Armstrong (ribs) is active for Sunday's game against the Bears, Zach Selby of the Commanders' official site reports.

    Analysis: Armstrong injured his ribs in Week 6 against the Ravens, and the injury is severe enough for him to be sidelined against the Panthers in Week 7. The 2018 fourth-round pick was limited in practice all week, and while he's unlikely to be at 100 percent health, he'll suit up for Sunday's contest. Armstrong has logged 12 tackles (four solo), including 3.0 sacks, and one forced fumble through six regular-season games.

  • Could return in Week 8

    Armstrong (ribs) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Bears.

    Analysis: The first-year Commander missed Washington's Week 7 win over the Panthers due to a ribs injury, but he has a chance to return Sunday after practicing in a limited fashion throughout the week. If Armstrong can't play through the issue in Week 8, expect Efe Obada to see increased reps with Washington's first-team defense.

  • Ruled out for Week 7

    Commanders head coach Dan Quinn said Friday that Armstrong (ribs) is ruled out for Sunday's game against the Panthers, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Armstrong will miss at least one game due to the ribs injury he sustained during Washington's loss to the Ravens in Week 6. Quinn said Armstrong "had a good week but he's not there yet." The veteran defensive end's next chance to take the field will come Week 8 versus Chicago.

  • Missing Wednesday's practice

    Armstrong (ribs) won't practice Wednesday, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.

    Analysis: Armstrong sustained a ribs injury in the Commanders' Week 6 loss to the Ravens, and Wednesday's DNP is an indication that his injury may be significant. The first-year Commander will likely need to upgrade to at least limited participation Thursday or Friday in order to suit up for Washington's Week 7 matchup against the Panthers.

  • More testing to come

    Head coach Dan Quinn told reporters that Armstrong will undergo further testing on his ribs injury Monday, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Armstrong exited in the first half and did not return to Sunday's loss to the Ravens after sustaining a ribs injury. Monday's tests and Armstrong's practice participation this week will likely provide the best indication on whether the 27-year-old can suit up for the Commanders' Week 7 matchup against the Panthers.

  • Downgraded to out

    Armstrong (ribs) won't return to Sunday's game against the Ravens.

    Analysis: Armstrong didn't record any counting stats before exiting the contest in the first half. However, he's been a key piece of Washington's defense, posting 3.0 sacks over the prior three games. In Armstrong's absence, Efe Obada and Javontae Jean-Baptiste are candidates for increased defensive snaps.

  • Exits Week 6 with rib injury

    Armstrong hurt his ribs Sunday versus Baltimore and is questionable to return.

    Analysis: Armstrong was hurt in the first half, and it's unclear if he'll be able to return to the game. The defensive end has been a key part of the Commanders' pass rush this season, playing over half of the team's defensive snaps in each contest coming into Sunday and tallying 3.0 sacks. Javontae Jean-Baptiste could see more action if Armstrong doesn't return Sunday.

  • Tallies 1.5 sacks vs. Cardinals

    Armstrong finished Sunday's 42-14 win over the Cardinals with five tackles (three solo), including 1.5 sacks, and one forced fumble.

    Analysis: Armstrong contributed to two of the Commanders' four sacks Sunday. After combining with Frankie Luvu for a five-yard sack on Kyler Murray midway through the second quarter, Armstrong got to Murray for a seven-yard sack on a fourth-and-one late in the same frame, which led to a 45-yard field goal by Austin Seibert five plays later. Through the first four games of the regular season, Armstrong is up to nine tackles (three solo), including 2.0 sacks, and one forced fumble.

  • Will play in Week 3

    Armstrong (chest) was a full participant in Saturday's practice and does not have an injury designation ahead of Monday's game against the Bengals.

    Analysis: Armstrong was limited Thursday and Friday due to a chest injury, but the 2018 fourth-round pick upgraded to full participation for Saturday's session. He has registered three tackles through the first two games of the regular season.

  • Moving to Washington

    Armstrong is slated to sign with the Commanders on Wednesday, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Armstrong's deal is expected to be worth a max of $45 million over three years, according to Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com. The 26-year-old will remain in the NFC East and continue playing under Dan Quinn, but he'll ultimately be changing addresses in 2024. The Kansas product has spent all six NFL seasons in Dallas and recorded a career-high 38 combined tackles last season while adding 7.5 sacks, which was second on the team to Micah Parsons in 2023.

  • Another productive campaign

    Armstrong recorded 38 tackles (20 solo) including 7.5 sacks with a pass defended over 17 regular-season games in 2023.

    Analysis: The 26-year-old defensive end finished second on the Cowboys in sacks behind Micah Parsons' 14.0, taking full advantage of all the attention his All-Pro teammate received. Armstrong has emerged as a solid complementary piece in the Dallas pass rush, racking up 21.0 sacks over the last three campaigns and not missing a game over the last two, and he's set up for a big payday as a free agent this offseason.

  • Picks up another sack

    Armstrong recorded three tackles (two solo) and one sack in the Cowboys' Week 10 victory over the Giants.

    Analysis: Armstrong's sack brings his season total up to 4.5 and marks his third consecutive game leaving a dent in that category. The defensive end was on the field for 22 defensive snaps (39 percent), which is consistent with his workload from previous games. He will look to continue pressuring the quarterback in Week 11 when the Cowboys head to Carolina.

  • Two sacks in Week 1 win

    Armstrong recorded three tackles, including two sacks, in Sunday's 40-0 rout of the Giants.

    Analysis: It was a huge night for the Dallas defense, and Armstrong tied Osa Odighizuwa for the team lead in sacks as the Cowboys' pass rush brought down Daniel Jones seven times in total. Armstrong piled up a career-high 8.5 sacks in 2022, and he could reach double digits this season as offenses scramble to try and find a way to slow down Micah Parsons, leaving plenty of holes for the Cowboys' other pass rushers.

  • Ready to go for Week 1

    Armstrong (hamstring) did not appear on the Cowboys' injury report Wednesday, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Analysis: Armstrong has moved past the hamstring injury that limited him in August and appears ready to go for the season opener Sunday versus the Giants. The defensive lineman appeared in all 17 of the team's contests in 2022, recording 33 tackles, including a career-high 8.5 sacks.

  • Sits once again

    Armstrong (hamstring) did not practice Thursday, Calvin Watkins of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Analysis: Armstrong missed time previously during camp due to a hamstring injury, although he did ultimately return to practice Monday. It's unclear if the team is choosing to limit him out of caution or if he aggravated the injury, and how much time extra time, if any, the 26-year-old may miss.

  • Active at practice

    Armstrong (hamstring) was a full participant at Monday's practice, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Armstrong had consecutive pressures on Dak Prescott which led to incompletions. Thus, it appears he has moved past the hamstring injury that previously left him sidelined at practice. He is expected to provide depth at defensive end for the Cowboys this season.

  • Sits out practice

    Armstrong is dealing with a hamstring injury, Todd Archer of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Armstrong missed practice on Monday due to tightness in his hamstring, though the injury is not thought to be serious. The 2018 fourth-round pick is coming off a career year, logging 33 tackles (17 solo) in 17 games while registering a career-high 8.5 sacks. Once healthy, the 26-year-old will look to continue providing solid depth behind DeMarcus Lawrence and Micah Parsons during the 2023 campaign.

  • Emerges as pass-rush threat

    Armstrong recorded 33 tackles (17 solo), including a career-high 8.5 sacks, through 17 regular-season games in 2022. He added a forced fumble and two fumble recoveries.

    Analysis: With offensive lines focusing a lot of energy on trying to slow down Micah Parsons, the Cowboys' other pass rushers found a lot of success winning 1-on-1 matchups. Armstrong was no exception, as the fifth-year defensive end came into the season with only 7.5 career sacks. He has one more year left on his current contract, and another strong campaign opposite Parsons could set Armstrong up for a big payday in 2024, assuming Dallas doesn't sign him to an extension before then.

  • Set to play Week 16

    Armstrong (knee) has been ruled active for Saturday's game versus Philadelphia, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Analysis: Armstrong was temporarily forced out during Sunday's loss to the Jaguars with a knee injury, which kept him limited in each practice leading up to Saturday's contest. The fifth-year defensive end has logged 25 tackles, eight sacks, one forced fumble and two fumble recoveries over 14 games this season, so his availability will be a major boost with Sam Williams (concussion) already inactive Week 16.

  • Back after brief absence

    Armstrong (knee) returned to the field after exiting Sunday's game at Jacksonville, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Analysis: The injury that forced Armstrong out of Sunday's game at the Jaguars was apparently minor, and it looks like he should be able to finish the game in overtime. Dallas' pass rush will benefit from his presence.

  • Exits game with knee injury

    Armstrong (knee) is questionable to return to Sunday's game at Jacksonville, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Analysis: Armstrong dealt with an ankle injury earlier in the week, but it's an injury to his knee that knocked him out of Sunday's game. Dante Fowler should see increased snaps in Armstrong's absence.

  • Ready to face Jags

    Armstrong (ankle) is active for Sunday's game at Jacksonville, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Armstrong was questionable with an ankle injury but has been cleared to take the field for the Week 15 matchup with the Jaguars. The 25-year-old has 25 tackles (14 solo), eight sacks, one forced fumble and two fumble recoveries through 13 games this year.

  • Questionable for Sunday

    Armstrong (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's matchup against Jacksonville, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Armstrong was limited throughout Week 15 prep due to an ankle injury and is considered questionable for Sunday. The fifth-year defensive end has yet to miss a game this season, totaling 25 tackles and a career-high eight sacks.

    Published: Fri, Dec 16 at 2:18pm by Rotowire.com
    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Racks up two sacks in Week 11

    Armstrong recorded three tackles, including two sacks, in Sunday's win over the Vikings.

    Analysis: It's the second time this season Armstrong has racked up multiple sacks in a game, and the 25-year-old defensive end already has a career-high seven through 10 games. With Micah Parsons and DeMarcus Lawrence drawing the focus of offenses, Armstrong should continue finding easier paths to the quarterback as a key part of Dallas' league-best pass rush.

    Published: Mon, Nov 21 at 10:42am by Rotowire.com

  • Collects two sacks against Cincy

    Armstrong recorded two sacks in Sunday's win over the Bengals.

    Analysis: The Dallas pass rush was all over Joe Burrow, piling up six sacks and nine QB hits in total, and Armstrong was a big part of that effort. After posting a career-high five sacks in 2021, the 25-year-old defensive end could be poised to top that number this season with offenses focused on trying to slow down Micah Parsons and DeMarcus Lawrence.

  • Agrees to terms with Dallas

    Armstrong agreed to a two-year, $13 million contract with the Cowboys on Thursday, Calvin Watkins of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Analysis: Armstrong has spent the first four seasons of his career in Dallas, and he racked up a career-high 37 tackles (23 solo), five sacks, a pass defense, a fumble recovery and a touchdown in 2021 despite missing four games with an ankle injury. He'll attempt to carve out a role as a depth option once again in 2022.

  • Remains sidelined Sunday

    Armstrong (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Patriots, David Helman of the Cowboys' official site reports.

  • Likely won't return this week

    Armstrong (ankle) will likely be out for Sunday's contest against the Giants, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Armstrong hasn't been able to practice since spraining his ankle in Week 2. It would be encouraging to see him back on the practice field this week, but he will likely be shut down for at least one more week. Brent Urban will likely continue to see an increased role while Armstrong is out.

  • Won't face Carolina

    Armstrong (ankle) won't play in Sunday's game against the Panthers, Jon Mochota of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Armstrong hasn't been able to practice since spraining his ankle in Week 2, so it's not surprising to see him ruled out for Sunday's game. The rotational defensive end will look to heal up in time to face the Giants in Week 5.

  • Ruled out for Week 3

    Armstrong (ankle) is ruled out for Monday's game against the Eagles, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Armstrong made one sack and also forced a fumble in Monday's 37-18 win over the Giants.

    Analysis: Armstrong posted one of the best performances of his 2019 campaign in his return from a neck injury that kept him sidelined in Week 7 prior to the Cowboys' bye. The addition of fellow defensive end Michael Bennett could limit Armstrong's opportunities moving forward, however.
