Fantasy Impact:
Justin Durant has been the vocal leader for the Cowboys and also led the team in tackles this season with his 49 tackles. The Cowboys will turn to young Kyle Wilber and Anthony Hitchens to help Rolando McClain and Bruce Carter at linebacker, but this will be a huge hit for the Cowboys' defense if he misses significant time. The even more complicated aspect is that rookie pass rusher DeMarcus Lawrence is due to come off of the IR this week and Durant's injury will determine if he is on the 53 man roster. The Cowboys may be able to get a boost from Lawrence, a silver lining to the Durant injury.
