OXNARD, Calif. – It doesn’t like it’s time to hit the panic button on the running back spot just yet – at least, the Cowboys hope so.
Lance Dunbar came up limping after taking a rep in full-team drills during Wednesday’s afternoon practice, and he left the field with team trainers after having his right ankle looked at.
Cowboys executive vice president Stephen Jones said he doesn’t think the injury is serious, but he added that it’s too early to say for sure.
“I think that was an awkward tackle or hit that was made on him, and I think he just tweaked something,” Jones said. “We don’t really think it’s a serious issue at this point.”
That might be the case, but it certainly gave the Cowboys a concerning look at their running back prospects in the event of injury. Darren McFadden is still rehabbing his hamstring injury, so the loss of Dunbar left the offense with just Joseph Randle, Lache Seastrunk and Gus Johnson.
