He got hurt running out the clock. He either got poked in the eye or got a concussion.

ARLINGTON, Texas -- Cowboys running back Tashard Choice looked woozy as he came off the field with 2:15 left to go in the game and the Cowboys milking a 34-14 lead. Choice ran the ball and got tackled, but was slow to get up. Choice sustained a concussion last week against the Eagles and did not practice until Thursday.

After the game we'll know more about his status. It could be important heading into next week's divisional matchup at Minnesota. Marion Barber played in just the first two series of the game, rushing three times, before being taken out of the game. Barber entered with a bruised left knee, but early word from the Cowboys PR staff was that Barber did not injure the knee further.

UPDATE: After the game, Choice said he is fine. He said he just took a hard hit, but nothing more.

"I just got hit man. It wasn’t like last week where I got a helmet to the head," said Choice, who finished with 14 carries for 42 yards, including a 1-yard touchdown to open the scoring. "I was sitting there, I got hit, I said, man, I was mad."

It looked like he had a head injury again when he went out on his last play. He was real shook up and groggy, but walked off on his own alright but then sat down and was obviously woozy.


edit: after reading that previous update - this is GREAT NEWS.

I read that he was feeling woozy after the hit where he left the game. Combine that with the mild concussion he suffered last week and it's doubtful he will be playing next week.

It looked like Flozell had a hand injury too.

Thanks for the info. I sure hope he's okay.

Sorry if it is a repost. I haven't read or heard anything yet. I really hope he doesn't have another concussion He plays with such emotion and grit that we would sure miss him going forward.

This is what I was thinking, but it sure would be nice to have him.

I feel good if two out of three of our running backs are healthy. Really. Barber and Choice would get it done. Barber and Jones would get it done. Choice and Jones would get it done.

But if all three are ready to go I feel event better.
