Well, it wasn't as bad as it could have been. Cornerback Terence Newman will miss a month of playing time, but at least it wasn't a full-blown sports hernia. That could have cost him up to two months. From the DMN blog:
Cowboys cornerback Terence Newman had surgery today on his groin and will be out at least a month. Doctors thought Newman would be out six-to-eight weeks, but discovered his groin muscle wasn't as badly damaged.
Hat tip to silverblue5 for first posting this news.
Are you guys Pac'ed out? Yup, I'm tired of the whole Pacman mess this week. But, there is a little more news, so I have to post it.
NFL officials said Friday they will not complete their investigation into an incident involving Jones until next week.
We'll find out then. Until that time, I'd advise Jerry Jones to keep his mouth shut on the incident, or he'll say stuff like this.
"I almost feel like I'm an enabler," Jerry Jones said. "Because it's the very people that I have with him that created this. Had we not had that security with him, this wouldn't have happened. Really. Had we not had the security with him, it wouldn't have happened."
Just stop, please.
If you haven't had your fill, you can get more details here and here.
Anquan Boldin is definitely out for Sunday.
