Cowboys Cornerback DaRon Bland Could Miss Games with Foot Injury, Team Says
DaRon Bland's foot injury adds strain to the Dallas Cowboys' secondary as Trevon Diggs recovers from knee surgery, highlighting limited depth at cornerback, per ESPN reports.
- Dallas Cowboys cornerback DaRon Bland sustained a right foot injury during Monday’s practice in Frisco, Texas, and the team reported it on their website.
- Bland’s injury occurred less than two weeks after he agreed to a $92 million deal over four years, which featured $50 million in guaranteed money, finalized on August 31.
- Bland, a 26-year-old Fresno State alum and 2022 fifth-round draft choice, was named an All-Pro in 2023 after leading the NFL in interceptions with a total of nine and topping the charts in passes defended with fifteen.
- The injury could sideline Bland for a couple of weeks, but the current injury is unrelated to last season’s stress fracture that caused him to miss the first 10 games.
- Bland’s absence may require the Cowboys to rely on players like Roddy Steward, who was recently picked up off waivers and played special teams in the Week 1 loss to the Eagles.
