Summary
Dallas Cowboys left guard Tyler Smith is sidelined for at least a month after needing surgery on his left thumb, a setback that could cost him the first four games and possibly more. The injury, sustained during training camp, forced him to play through pain — but the team opted for surgery now to ensure his long-term health. A two-time Pro Bowler, Smith’s absence hits hard, especially with the offensive line already thin. Veteran T.J. Bass, re-signed this offseason, is expected to step in. Smith’s return could come as early as Week 5, but mid-October seems more likely — a major loss, but one the Cowboys hope he can bounce back from quickly.
