It is getting down the point with the injuries piling up that we may have to give up on Gifford, Knight or Redmond just due to simple numbers.
They are going to have to carry both Gallup and Woods on the 53 and deactivate them until they are healthy. Something has to give soon.
if the Cowboys 'give up' on Gifford, I would think it's directly due to a seriousness regarding his high ankle sprain injury, and then it's straight to IR list.
they will keep him around their 53 roster as much as they can, as he's shown glimpses of being a playmaker. you don't give up on those type of guys, unless medical crisis within him
forces otherwise.
But I thought I read where an NFL team can only be allowed to IR a certain number of players.
I've heard they are high on Redmond and Knight, and want to try to maintain them as much as they can. Redmond has versatility to play both C and OG, while Knight has
demeanor and physical ability inside that they apparently like...I believe he was tried outside very early in camp but that didn't turn out too promising at all.
and i'm thinking among Filo, Redmon and Knight, the rumors that other NFL teams inquired about a trade for certain Cowboys OL involved those aforementioned names.
