Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Brandin Cooks will miss at least one game due to an infection in his right knee following a recent surgical procedure. Cooks had previously been dealing with a knee issue but managed to play through it. His absence leaves the Cowboys with limited experience at the receiver position, relying heavily on CeeDee Lamb. Cooks has had a slow start to the season, with most of his production coming in the season opener against the Cleveland Browns.
  • Brandin Cooks is out for at least one game due to a knee infection.
  • The Cowboys are thin at wide receiver without Cooks, relying on inexperienced players.
