Editor's Note: SB Nation's partner FanDuel is running a $1.25M fantasy football league on Sunday. First place wins $100,000. Join now!

The final injury report is out for the Dallas Cowboys game with the Miami Dolphins. As usual, it comes with good news and bad news.

The good news is that Tony Romo is back. Hadn't heard about that? Anyway, he'll also have his biggest weapon, Dez Bryant, available as he is listed as probable. The Cowboys have a slew of other players listed as probable, including Sean Lee who should be back and provide a boost for the defense.

On the likely good news front, Darren McFadden is listed as questionable but all indications are that he will play. Jeremy Mincey will also likely play even though he is questionable.

On the bad news side of things, cornerback Morris Claiborne has been ruled out. He'll be joined by Brice Butler and Ryan Russell.

The Cowboys are likely to have new running back Robert Turbin active this week.

The full injury report:

Dallas Cowboys


OUT - WR Brice Butler (hamstring), CB Morris Claiborne (hamstring, ankle), DE Ryan Russell (abdomen)

QUESTIONABLE - RB Darren McFadden (groin), DE Jeremy Mincey (thigh), LB Kyle Wilber (toe)

its not like we exploit weaknesses. So i really dont know how it helps us. Now is Miami going to avoid Byron Jones, you better believe it. Are we going to attack a back up OT, probably not.

Just as I said, Sean Lee is going to play in a career best 15 out of 16 games this season, yet half the people around here are calling for his immediate retirement. Seems like there's so much unwarranted hate for Sean Lee... I understand being disappointed in his career thus far given all the games he's missed, but it seems like now that he's finally been relatively healthy, many people seem to be almost hoping he fails, even to the point where he's already considered a lost cause to some... Lee's concussions were freak occurrences, otherwise he looks good to go physically, he's come back strong from his other more serious injuries... Again, I just don't see any reason why at 29yo, Sean Lee's best seasons couldn't still be yet to come...

Glad to see Sean back out there! He will prove you naysayers wrong!

Sean Lee probable? in other words...Sean Lee will make a few great plays into the 2nd quarter, sneeze and give himself another concussion, and the defense implodes, giving up an immediate TD


....our best hope is that Tony can help Sean's game/career by keeping the defense off of the field...

Well, another game and more players missing. Others banged up...still...
Now this week it is Mo. Yes, we need him in there.

And with a back up OT on the Dolphins, he will play like an all=pro...they usually do against us.

We will be 100% healthy when it is too late to make a difference.

If DMac can't go this weekend which RB gets the bulk of his carries Smith or Turbin?
