The Dallas Cowboys have been preparing as if they’ll face Lamar Jackson when they take on the Baltimore Ravens on Tuesday night. That appears to be the reality as the reigning MVP seems good to go for Week 13 following being placed on the COVID-19 list and missing his team’s Week 12 loss to the undefeated Pittsburgh Steelers.

NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport confirmed the reports on NFL GameDay Sunday morning.

The Cowboys (3-8) and Ravens (6-5) were supposed to play this past Thursday night, but the game was postponed in the wake of the Ravens and Steelers matchup being delayed almost an entire week due to a rampant outbreak of COVID-19 positive tests with the Ravens. That game was supposed to follow Dallas and Washington on Thanksgiving, but was pushed all the way to Wednesday night as the Ravens kept having new positive tests.

Now the teams will square off on Tuesday night after initially being delayed to Monday afternoon. The NFL gave that 4:00 p.m. Central slot to Washington and Pittsburgh.

The news means that former Cowboys’ star Dez Bryant will have a legitimate chance to score against his former team with Jackson at the helm.
