NFL insiders are in the business to provide credible information their reputation is at state. There's millions of fans out there who listen to these guys and it's important to their credibility they provide accurate information. They don't want to look stupid but if they're provided with bad information they can look stupid and it reflects bad on them. They always make it clear that "according to their sources" this is how the situation stands. I'm not going to fault Rapoport if Dez comes back 3 weeks prior to when he was told he would be back when Dez first sustained the injury.
Not even doctors can give an accurate time frame for some injuries it depends on the player. Dez is going to have to be a full participate for most of next week or he might be out again. We all know the Cowboys are probably pushing this because they're in trouble. We'll just have to see how it goes next week but until he's officially slated to play I'm not counting on him.
