Definitely a blow to the defense. Get well soon Lewis.

Bland will get his opportunity.

Or Kelvin Joseph.
Bland is the next man up in the slot. My guess is is Joseph can play inside, he will rotate with Bland and give Diggs and Brown the occasional breather. Hate to hear Lewis went down, but thankfully the guys behind him are solid.

Tough for Lewis but I feel good about what Bland will bring to the position. I like having the experience but Bland has better feel for the game.

He will be better in the run game too.

We have a lot of depth at CB....

Just got an alert about they fear a possible Linsfranc injury. If so gone for the year. I don’t to twitter. Has any seen this to post?

This topic has already been posted in multiple threads. But I will post what I put in the other thread:

https://cowboyszone.com/threads/any-news-on-jourdan-lewis-injury.501741/

A little read if you are unfamiliar with Lisfranc related foot injuries:

TLDR - He will probably be out the remainder of the regular season. He will need surgery. 10-14 weeks is an average timeframe of recovery. 8 weeks in the best case scenario. The rest of the year including the post-season in the worst case scenario.


Options include operative or non-operative treatment. One study claims that in athletes, and if the dislocation is less than 2 mm, the fracture can be managed with casting for six weeks. The person's injured limb cannot bear weight during this period. In the majority of cases early anatomical reduction and stable fixation is indicated. A 2005 study suggests that closed reduction and Kirschner wire (K-wire) stabilization or open reduction and stabilization - generally using screws to avoid the complication of K-wires and maintain a stable reduction - are the treatments of choice.

According to a 1997 study, for severe Lisfranc injuries, open reduction with internal fixation (ORIF) and temporary screw or Kirschner wire fixation is the treatment of choice. The foot cannot be allowed to bear weight for a minimum of six weeks. Partial weight-bearing may then begin, with full weight bearing after an additional several weeks, depending on the specific injury. K-wires are typically removed after six weeks, before weight bearing, while screws are often removed after 12 weeks

He’s not better than Lewis but he looks like he’s the best guy to replace him and looks like a guy who is gonna be a solid player

That’s my analysis. Take it or leave it. Bland is better.

bland will be better. You heard it here first.
You have been singing his praises for a hot minute and I respect your analysis, but I have to say you're not the first.
Probably the second.
@AsthmaField has been on this guy like hot glue since well before training camp.

But, beyond that, props bubba.
I agree with you and you recognized his talent early.

It’s in the news forum. Cowboys fear surgery is needed.

Dez Bryant was never the same after suffering his.
I had that injury 20 years ago and my foot hasn't been the same.. I'm not a pro athlete but different things make it flare up making it almost impossible to walk . I hope his is better
