Overshown was given the green light by medical staff to play Monday after missing the Cowboys' five previous games due to a hamstring injury. The fourth-year linebacker ended up co-leading Dallas in tackles and he picked off Tanner McKee midway through the fourth quarter. Overshown has played in only 21 regular-season games since being selected by the Cowboys in the third round of the 2023 NFL Draft, but he's still a key piece in the defense when healthy.

Overshown hasn't played since suffering a hamstring injury Week 1 versus the Giants. However, director of player personnel Stephen Jones said Monday that the linebacker has a "great chance" to play in Week 7, and Overshown's return to action seems all but certain given his ability to log a full practice Thursday. Should he in fact suit up, Overshown should slide back in as a starter after logging a 74 percent defensive snap share in his lone appearance so far this season.

Overshown has been unavailable since suffering a hamstring injury in Week 1 versus the Giants, but director of player personnel Stephen Jones said Monday that the linebacker has a "great chance" to play in Week 7. Overshown compiled 28 total tackles (15 solo) over six regular-season games in 2025, and he'll have a chance to provide a big boost to a struggling Dallas defense.

Overshown has been sidelined since going down in Week 1 against the Giants and will miss a fifth consecutive game. Jaishawn Barham and Dee Winters will continue to handle linebacker duties for the Cowboys.

Overwshown ended Week 6 prep with back-to-back limited practices, which was enough for him to draw the questionable tag for Sunday night's game, though head coach Brian Schottenheimer said Friday that Overshown is a "long shot" to play. If Overshown is indeed ruled out for a second consecutive game, then rookie third-rounder Jaishawn Barham would be in line to once again start alongside Dee Winters at linebacker.

Overshown didn't practice Wednesday. However, his limited participation Thursday keeps the door open for his possible return Sunday versus the Packers after missing the last four games because of a hamstring injury.

Overshown has missed the Cowboys' last four games due to a hamstring injury he sustained in Week 1 against the Giants. He's also been held out of practice since picking up his injury, so he would have to log at least a limited session over the next two days to have a realistic shot at returning for this Sunday's road game against the Packers.

Overshown was a DNP in all three practices in a shortened week due to a hamstring injury, which he sustained in the Cowboys' regular-season opener against the Giants. He'll end up missing a fourth consecutive game as a result of his health concern, and his next chance to play is Week 6 against the Packers on Sunday, Oct. 18. Jaishawn Barham and Shemar James will continue to operate in elevated roles at inside linebacker next to Dee Winters for as long as Overshown is sidelined.

Overshown will likely miss a fourth consecutive game with the Cowboys playing on a short-week Thursday night. The 26-year-old has not practiced since leaving Week 1 with a hamstring injury. Shemar James will continue to see more playing time in his absence.

Overshown has sat out Dallas' last three contests due to a hamstring injury he suffered in Week 1 against the Giants, and his availability for Thursday's game against the Buccaneers is now in doubt as well. He'll probably need to practice in some capacity Tuesday or Wednesday to put himself in a position to play in Week 5.

Overshown was originally expected to miss 1-to-2 weeks with a hamstring injury suffered in Week 1, but with a quick turnaround for their next two games, the Cowboys are expected to remain cautious about his return. Shemar James could see extended playing time in Overshown's absence.

Overshown has not practiced since sustaining a hamstring injury during the Cowboys' Week 1 loss to the Giants. Given the amount of time he's been sidelined, Overshown likely needs to log at least one limited session during Week 4 prep to have a chance to suit up for Sunday's game against the Texans.
