Cowboys Cornerback DaRon Bland May Need Another Surgery on His Foot, AP Source Says

Bland's recurring left foot injury follows last season's surgery and has led to missing practice and a likely injured reserve placement with three games left, sources said.

  • On Thursday, Dallas Cowboys cornerback DaRon Bland is facing possible second left-foot surgery, but he is seeking a second opinion and no surgery has been scheduled, ESPN reported.
  • After undergoing fifth metatarsal surgery in August 2024, Bland missed 10 games last season and his left-foot issue has resurfaced with setbacks this year.
  • This season, Bland has allowed a QB rating of 103.3 and earned a Pro Football Focus grade of 65.2, ESPN reported.
  • Even if Bland avoids surgery, he is likely headed to injured reserve with three games left, and his practice window closes Saturday, forcing a decision on activating Trevon Diggs, fellow cornerback.
  • With Bland likely sidelined, the Cowboys will give game reps to young cornerbacks Shavon Revel and Caelen Carson as Bland's four-year, $92 million extension runs through 2029.
