Cowboys' Alijah Clark: Done for night
Clark (hamstring) has been ruled out for the remainder of Thursday night's contest against the Buccaneers, Calvin Watkins of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Clark is dealing with an apparent hamstring injury, and as a result, his night has come to a premature end. The safety plays primarily with the special-teams unit, so his absence won't impact the Cowboys' defense.

Clark (ankle) recorded one tackle in the Cowboys' 17-7 preseason win over the Seahawks on Saturday.
Clark had been dealing with an ankle injury at training camp, but he was able to play 80 percent of the team's defensive snaps in the contest. The 23-year-old is competing for a reserve spot in the secondary with Dallas this season, and his next chance to prove himself will come Saturday in Arizona.

Cowboys' Alijah Clark: Exits practice with ankle injury
Clark left Tuesday's training camp practice due to an ankle injury, Calvin Watkins of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Clark sustained the injury while breaking up a pass during team drills in Tuesday's practice. He had to be helped off the field by training staff, and he'll undergo further tests to determine the severity of the injury. Clark is competing for a depth spot in the Cowboys' secondary, so an extended absence would hurt his chances of making the 53-man roster at the end of training camp.

Cowboys' Alijah Clark: Inactive for personal reasons
Clark (personal) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Giants.
Per the Cowboys, Clark is attending to a personal matter and will not be with the team for Sunday's regular-season finale. He'll end the 2025 regular season with 18 tackles (nine solo) and one forced fumble across 11 games while contributing mostly on special teams. Markquese Bell will be the top reserve option at safety behind Malik Hooker and Donovan Wilson in Clark's absence.

Cowboys' Alijah Clark: Active versus Las Vegas
Clark (ribs) is active for Monday night's game against the Raiders.

Cowboys' Alijah Clark: Ruled out for Week 9
Clark (ribs) has been ruled out ahead of Monday's game against the Cardinals, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.
Clark did not log a practice this week due to the rib injury he suffered in last Sunday's 44-24 loss against the Broncos. The Cowboys' safety carousel will continue this week, with a number of other defensive backs potentially filling the role. Markquese Bell, C.J. Goodwin, Trikweze Bridges or Kaiir Elam all have a shot to be the third starting strong safety in as many weeks for the Cowboys defense.

Cowboys' Alijah Clark: Won't return due to rib injury
Clark (ribs) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Broncos, Joe Hoyt of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Clark sustained the injury during the second half of Sunday's game, and he was carted to the locker room to undergo more tests after being initially evaluated by medical staff on the sidelines. With Clark done for the day, the Cowboys may have to turn to a corner to fill in at safety such as C.J. Goodwin, Trikweze Bridges, Kaiir Elam or Corey Ballentine. Clark got the start at safety Sunday due to the absences of Donovan Wilson (elbow), Juanyeh Thomas (migraine) and Malik Hooker (toe, IR).

Clark may have injured his elbow during the Cowboys' preseason loss to the Rams on Saturday, when he played 54 snaps (48 on defense, six on special teams) and finished with five solo tackles.
