Defensive tackle Tank Johnson is still bothered by an ankle injury and did not practice Wednesday. He played against Washington but came out of the game with more pain than he had hoped.
"Tank Johnson - Terry Johnson - didn't participate in practice although he watched and did all his rehab stuff, which some of that is more strenuous as far as his ankle is concerned," coach Wade Phillips said. "I think it's a lot like last week, except it's better. He played last week, and he'll probably practice tomorrow."
The Cowboys are also being cautious with safety Patrick Watkins (shoulder, neck stinger), and it appears doubtful that he'll play this week. Stephen Bowen (hamstring) was limited. Fullback Deon Anderson (knee) was back out there, though. He had to keep from going too hard, lest his injury give him more problems.
"Just a little anxious, but I was told not to go all out," Anderson said before practice. "They don't want me having any setbacks. I'm going to try to tone it down about 3 percent. That should keep me alright. So 97 percent is alright for today."
