    Overshown finished with six tackles (two solo) in Thursday's 31-28 win over the Chiefs.

    Head coach Brian Schottenheimer said Tuesday that Overshown (knee) is "trending" toward being activated from injured reserve ahead of the Cowboys' Week 11 clash against the Raiders on Monday, Nov. 17, Joe Hoyt of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Analysis: Overshown is in the final stages of his rehab from a torn ACL, MCL and PCL that he suffered in December. His 21-day practice window opened Oct. 22, and while he wasn't ready to return for Weeks 8 and 9, the expectation is that he'll be available to make his 2025 debut in Week 11. Overshown's return would bolster a Cowboys linebacker corps that will be without Jack Sanborn (groin) for at least four games after the latter was placed on injured reserve Monday.

He won't be available to play against the Cardinals on Sunday but is on track to return following the Cowboys' Week 10 bye.

  • Believes he's more explosive

    Overshown said this week that his athletic testing numbers are actually better than they were prior to last year's knee surgery, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports. "Stronger, faster, can jump higher, more explosive," the linebacker said. "You name it, I'm all of it. My game is not going to slow down."

    Analysis: The 2023 third-round pick has had trouble staying healthy in his NFL career, as surgeries on each knee have limited him to just 13 regular-season contests, all of them coming in 2024. Overshown was incredibly productive when on the field though, racking up 90 tackles (56 solo) including 5.0 sacks and recording four passes defended, one of which he turned into a 23-yard interception return for a touchdown in a Thanksgiving win over the Giants. He's not expected to make his 2025 debut until Week…read more

  • Return in play after bye

    Cowboys owner and general manager Jerry Jones said Wednesday that Overshown (knee) could return Week 11 versus the Raiders, after Dallas' bye, Todd Archer of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Overshown remains on the reserve/PUP list while working his way back from a torn ACL, MCL and PCL in his right knee suffered last December. Early in the regular season, Overshown said that he anticipated returning to action before Thanksgiving, a timetable that seems to still be realistic. Once cleared to retake the field, Overshown's presence will provide a notable boost for the Cowboys' defense, which has struggled significantly to open the 2025 campaign.

  • Could return before Thanksgiving

    Overshown told reporters Monday that he's "feeling good" about his recovery from a from a severe injury from the 2024 season and noted, "I feel like I'll be playing football before Thanksgiving with the team," Joe Hoyt of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Analysis: Overshown started the season on the active/PUP list while recovering from a torn ACL, MCL and PCL that he suffered in December. He's unlikely to be available to return when first eligible (Week 5 against the Jets on Sunday, Oct. 5), but a mid-November return is in the cards for the 2023 third-rounder. Damone Clark and Marist Liufau will continue to see snaps at linebacker for as long as Overshown is sidelined.

  • Out first four games, at minimum

    The Cowboys placed Overshown (ACL) on the reserve/PUP list Tuesday.

    Analysis: Overshown will have to miss at least the first four games of the regular season as a result of the transaction, making him eligible to return Week 5 against the Jets on Oct. 5 at the earliest. The 2023 third-round pick is working his way back from a right knee injury suffered Week 14 of last season, when he tore his ACL, MCL and PCL, so it wouldn't be surprising if he requires longer than the four-game minimum to get healthy.

    Analysis: Overshown suffered a gruesome knee injury in Week 14 last season, blowing out his ACL, MCL and PCL in the process.

  • Hoping for midseason return

    Overshown (knee) intends to play in 2025 but is hoping for a midseason return and will likely begin the regular season on the PUP list, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Overshown met with Dr. Neal ElAttrache in July, and the meeting reinforced the linebacker's plan to suit up in 2025 after tearing his ACL, MCL and PCL in December. If Overshown is placed on the PUP/reserve list to begin the regular season, he would miss a minimum of four games, but that move would be precipitated by an official transaction from the team.

    Analysis: Overshown had surgery Dec. 18 to address ACL, MCL and PCL tears in his right knee. He said his recovery timeline is nine months, which doesn't out a Week 1 appearance, although the timing and severity of his injury mean it won't come as any surprise if he isn't ready for the start of the season.

    Overshown said Monday that the recovery timeline for his knee injury is nine months, Calvin Watkins of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Analysis: After suffering a gruesome injury in Week 14 versus the Bengals that required surgery to repair the ACL, MCL and PCL in his right knee, Overshown's stated timetable for return seems optimistic. He was establishing himself as a key contributor for Dallas' defense this season before getting hurt, so he profiles as a starting candidate at inside linebacker whenever he's ready to play again.

  • Moved to injured reserve

    Overshown (knee) was placed on IR on Saturday, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: This was a foregone conclusion, as Overshown is slated for surgery to repair the ACL, MCL and PCL in his right knee. The Texas product was enjoying a breakout campaign, tallying 90 tackles (including 5.0 sacks), a pick-six and a forced fumble prior to suffering the injury on Monday Night Football Week 14 against Cincinnati. It's not yet clear how long Overshown will need to rehab, but he's unlikely to be ready to play by the start of the 2025 campaign.

    Analysis: Overshown was enjoying a breakout Year 2 campaign prior to Monday's injury, having racked up 90 tackles (56 solo), inducing 5.0 sacks, across 13 appearances. The 2023 third-round pick also had four pass breakups, one interception (which he returned for a touchdown), one forced fumble and one fumble recovery. The timing of Overshown's severe knee injury is particularly brutal, as it seems likely to negatively impact his availability for the start of the 2025 campaign.

  • Will need surgery on knee

    Owner Jerry Jones said that Overshown will need surgery to address the knee injury he sustained during Monday's game versus the Bengals, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Also per Archer, the Cowboys fear that Overshown suffered damage to his right knee beyond a torn ACL. The team is still waiting for MRI results to confirm which specific ligaments were injured. It's all but a foregone conclusion that Overshown will spend the rest of the current campaign on injured reserve, which, in the meantime, would lead to an expanded role for rookie third-rounder Marist Liufau.

    The Cowboys placed Overshown (knee) on injured reserve Tuesday, Nick Harris of the team's official site reports.

    Analysis: The rookie third-round pick suffered a torn left ACL during a preseason game against the Seahawks, so his placement on season-ending IR comes as no surprise.

  • Flashing in camp

    Overshown continues to make impact plays every day in practice, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: The 2023 third-round pick out of Texas could wind up seeing most of his action as a rookie on special teams if the linebackers ahead of him on the depth chart -- Leighton Vander Esch, Damone Clark and Jabril Cox -- stay healthy, but Overshown has caught the eye of head coach Mike McCarthy in camp. "He's had flash plays every day, whether it's on a punt cover [or something else]," McCarthy said Tuesday. "He's moving up the charts on special teams, which we're excited about.
