Dallas Cowboys Injury vs. Patriots: Tyron Smith Limps Off

The Cowboys release an in-game update on Tyron Smith

The Dallas Cowboys looked to keep their four-game winning streak alive today in a matchup with the New England Patriots and future Pro Football Hall-of-Fame head coach Bill Belichick.

Dallas, which is rolling on offense (three-straight games over 200 yards rushing) and keeping pace on defense, is talking Super Bowl. But first, the Cowboys must beat Belichick for the first time in 30 years (1991 in his first year with Cleveland.)

And the Cowboys also need to beat “the injury bug.”

UPDATE: Cowboys left tackle Tyron Smith was already dinged up heading into Sunday's matchup, and in the third quarter he was forced to leave the game with an ankle problem.

Smith walked to the locker room under his own power for further tests by the medical staff and is being listed as questionable.
