  • Cowboys' Jalen Thompson: Sent to injured reserve

    The Cowboys placed Thompson (hamstring) on injured reserve Wednesday, Tommy Yarrish of the Cowboys' official site reports.

    Thompson sustained the injury in Sunday's loss to the Ravens and will now miss at least the next four contests. Markquese Bell filled in alongside rookie Caleb Downs at safety following Thompson's departure.

  • Cowboys' Jalen Thompson: Out multiple weeks

    Cowboys executive vice president Stephen Jones said Monday that Thompson (hamstring) is expected to miss four-plus weeks, Patrik Walker of the team's official site reports.

    Thompson looks like a candidate for injured reserve after he went down with a hamstring injury in the second quarter of Sunday's 34-31 loss to the Ravens in Rio de Janeiro. The loss of Thompson is yet another hit to the Cowboys' safety group, as Malik Hooker (forearm) has missed the last two games, and P.J. Locke (foot) was moved to IR on Saturday. Before sustaining the injury, Thompson had played every defensive snap through the Cowboys' first nine-plus quarters of the season, logging 17 tackles in the process.

  • Cowboys' Jalen Thompson: Done for night

    Thompson (hamstring) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's contest against Baltimore, Nick Harris of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.

    Thompson suffered a hamstring injury in the second quarter, and he will now be forced to sit out the remainder of Week 3. In his absence, Alijah Clark will continue to operate in a more prominent role in the secondary with Dallas.

  • Cowboys' Jalen Thompson: Exits game with hamstring injury

    Thompson (hamstring) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Ravens, Patrik Walker of the Cowboys' official site reports.

    Thompson sustained the injury during the second quarter, and after being checked on in the blue medical tent, the veteran safety made his way to the locker room, where he'll undergo further tests to determine whether he can return to Sunday's game. Alijah Clark should see more snaps on defense for as long as Thompson is out of the game.

  • Cowboys' Jalen Thompson: Back at practice Saturday

    Thompson (hip) was cleared to participate in Saturday's training camp practice, Tommy Yarrish of the Cowboys' official site reports.

    Thompson sat out of practice this past week while recovering from a hip injury, but he was given the green light to return for Saturday's practice. He was a fifth-round selection of the Cardinals in the 2019 NFL Draft and spent the first seven seasons of his NFL career with Arizona before signing a three-year deal with the Cowboys in March. Thompson figures to start alongside Malik Hooker at safety this season, with P.J. Locke (knee) and Markquese Bell providing depth at the position.

  • Cowboys' Jalen Thompson: Dealing with hip injury

    Thompson (hip) did not participate in Saturday's practice session, Joe Hoyt of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Thompson overcame a pectoral injury to participate in Wednesday's first training camp session, but has since suffered another injury. If the hip issue requires the starting strong safety to miss significant time, P.J. Locke will likely see more opportunities for reps with the starting secondary.

  • Cowboys' Jalen Thompson: Safety duo all set for camp

    Thompson is good to go for training camp, Joe Hoyt of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Thompson was able to get over his pectoral issue in time for Wednesday's first training camp session and was on the field alongside free safety Malik Hooker as a member of the starting secondary. The strong safety is all set to participate fully in camp activities, meaning P.J. Locke will likely see fewer opportunities.

  • Cowboys' Jalen Thompson: Tending to pec issue

    Coach Brian Schottenheimer said Tuesday that Thompson is nursing a minor pectoral injury, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.

    It's unknown when or how Thompson got hurt, but his coach's comments suggest there's no great cause for alarm. If he's limited during the Cowboys' minicamp, free agent acquisition P.J. Locke could see some work with the first-team defense.
