Cowboys' Josh Butler: Out for Week 17
Butler (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Thursday's matchup against the Commanders, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.
The Michigan State product returned to practice on Dec. 17 but will remain on the injured reserve list through Week 17. Butler has yet to play this season after posting 21 total tackles and five passes defensed across five contests in 2024. While he remains sidelined Thursday, Trevon Diggs and Caelen Carson (hamstring, questionable) will likely start as the Cowboys' top outside cornerbacks.

Butler (knee) will not be activated off injured reserve ahead of Sunday's game against the Chargers, Patrick Walker of the Cowboys' official site reports.

Cowboys' Josh Butler: Designated to return

Cowboys' Josh Butler: Tears ACL in Week 13
Butler tore his ACL in the fourth quarter of the Cowboys' 27-20 win over the Giants in Week 13, Randy Gurzi of SI.com reports.
Both Butler and Juanyeh Thomas suffered knee injuries in the fourth quarter of the game. While Thomas was diagnosed with a meniscus injury and has a return timeline of 2-to-3 weeks, the prognosis for Butler was worse, as it was confirmed after the game that he tore his ACL that will require surgery. It's a tough blow for Butler, who had emerged as a key piece in the Cowboys' secondary and filled in admirably at outside corner while Trevon Diggs was recovering from a groin injury. Butler will eventually be placed on injured reserve, and he'll end his 2024 campaign with 21 tackles (17 solo), including 1.0 sacks, and five pass defenses across five regular-season games.

Butler will likely be placed on injured reserve, and he'll shift his focus on recovery and rehab and aim to be ready for the 2025 campaign.

Cowboys' Josh Butler: Won't return Thursday

Butler injured his knee on pass coverage late in the second quarter, and he had to be helped by trainers to the locker room. With Butler out and Trevon Diggs (groin) inactive, C.J. Goodwin and DaRon Bland will serve as the Cowboys' outside corners for the second half of Thursday's game.

Cowboys' Josh Butler: Leading tackler in Sunday's win
Butler recorded 12 tackles (10 solo) including 1.0 sacks, and added three passes defended in Sunday's win over the Commanders.
In just his fourth career NFL game, Butler led the Cowboys in tackles while delivering his first career sack -- an incredible performance from a player who went undrafted out of Michigan State back in 2018 and had to prove himself in the USFL last year before finally getting his chance. The 28-year-old cornerback got the start with Trevon Diggs (groin) sidelined, but Butler may be forcing defensive coordinator Mike Zimmer to find a role for him even when the Dallas secondary is fully healthy.
