BREAKING NEWS: Coach Brian Schottenheimer gives injury update ahead of Cardinals game
The Dallas Cowboys have released an official injury update on their safety position, but instead of calming fans, it has only raised more concern across Cowboys Nation.
Serious concerns ahead of Week 9
As the Cowboys prepare to face the Arizona Cardinals in Week 9, their defensive depth is taking a major hit. Offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer confirmed that Donovan Wilson, one of Dallas’ most trusted defensive anchors, is unlikely to play due to elbow and shoulder injuries.
Losing Wilson would leave a huge hole in the secondary — especially as the Cowboys have already struggled to contain opponents over the middle of the field in recent weeks.
A small ray of hope: Juanyeh Thomas
Schottenheimer also noted that Juanyeh Thomas is “trending in the right direction,” with progress in his recovery. However, his Week 9 availability still remains uncertain, as team doctors have not officially cleared him for game action.
If both safeties are unavailable, Dallas may be forced to shift a cornerback to the safety position, a risky move that could further weaken their defensive coverage.
A defense running thin
The Cowboys’ safety room was already stretched thin — and these injuries only add to the pressure. With multiple players still short of full health, the once-feared Dallas defense has looked vulnerable and inconsistent.
In their last two games, the Cowboys have allowed opponents to average over 350 total yards, a troubling number for a unit that prides itself on dominance.
Fans are growing restless
Across social media, fans are voicing frustration and anxiety. “This defense doesn’t look like the Cowboys anymore,” one fan wrote on X (formerly Twitter). Others have demanded that the front office make a move before the trade deadline to patch the defensive depth before it’s too late.
The Cowboys’ defensive problems are deepening, and injuries at the safety position are only making things worse. If no immediate fixes are made, Week 9 could turn into a nightmare for America’s Team.
