[Mr Cowboy]

IRVING, Texas – The Cowboys have activated guard/center Kevin Kowalski off the physically unable to perform list and will have three weeks to activate him to the 53-man roster.

Kowalski had surgery during training camp for a severe case of tendinitis that kept him off the field for all of the organized team activities, minicamp and training camp.

He has been running for the better part of a month and said last week he does not feel any lingering issue from the tendinitis. The Cowboys will have a roster exemption for Kowalski to practice, but if they don't add him to the 53-man roster they would either have to cut him or leave him on PUP for the season.

“If he has a great week, in theory he could be active for this game this week,” coach Jason Garrett said Monday. “But we have three weeks to make that decision.”
