10:07 a.m. – As of Tuesday morning, nothing has changed regarding La'el Collins' NFL suspension, so Cowboys owner/general manager Jerry Jones is operating under the assumption that the veteran right tackle will not be available again Sunday against the Patriots.
"I frankly do not have anything that that's worth noting that would indicate otherwise that he won't be out for this game," Jones told 105.3 The Fan.
Collins is currently eligible to return from his five-game suspension next week, after Sunday's game at New England. But Collins is seeking an injunction blocking the remainder of the suspension for what the league called a violation of its substance abuse policy. U.S. District Judge Amos Mazzant III heard Collins' case last Friday and has yet to make a ruling.
The club doesn't anticipate any of the players on Reserve/Injured to return before next week's bye, head coach Mike McCarthy said.
The estimated timeline for starting defensive ends DeMarcus Lawrence (foot) and defensive tackle Neville Gallimore (elbow) is likely at least another month, Cowboys chief operating officer Stephen Jones told 105.3 The Fan.
Other players on IR include wide receiver Michael Gallup (calf) and rookie cornerback Kelvin Joseph (groin).
All are making progress, and the bye will provide another week to inch toward a return.
