Summary
Dallas Cowboys’ starting safety Malik Hooker fractured his forearm in the loss to the Giants, raising immediate concerns as he heads to a specialist for a recovery timeline. With the defense already thin—Jalen Thompson, Caleb Downs, and P.J. Locke filling in—the team hopes this break heals faster than the usual six weeks. The injury arrives at a brutal time, as the defense surrendered nearly 400 yards in that game, and new defensive coordinator’s debut didn’t go well. Hooker, who’s battled injuries before—including a toe issue last season—is now sidelined again, while linebacker DeMarvion Overshown exited with a hamstring strain and backup running back Malik Davis is already on IR after hip surgery. The Cowboys are bracing for a tough stretch without their top safety, waiting anxiously for the specialist’s update.
