Two of the Dallas Cowboys’ offensive playmakers sustained injuries in Thursday’s meeting with the Washington Commanders.
Running back Javonte Williams and tight end Jake Ferguson were among those impacted by injuries in the Christmas Day game. Williams was deemed questionable to return during the second quarter, while Ferguson was ruled out early in the third.
According to the Cowboys, Williams is dealing with a shoulder injury. Ferguson’s day was cut short by a calf injury.
This isn’t the first time Williams has dealt with a shoulder issue. He missed part of the team’s meeting with the Minnesota Vikings on Dec. 14 with an injured shoulder.
