  • Cowboys' Phil Mafah: Not yet ready to return

    Mafah (shoulder) has not been activated from injured reserve Saturday and is ruled out for Sunday's game against the Chargers, Patrik Walker of the Cowboys' official site reports.

    Mafah had his 21-day practice window opened Wednesday and has logged limited sessions since, but he won't come off IR in time for Sunday's contest against the Chargers. The rookie seventh-round pick's next opportunity to suit up will come in Week 17 against the Commanders on Christmas Day.

  • Cowboys' Phil Mafah: Questionable for Week 16

    Mafah (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Chargers, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.

    Mafah opened the season on injured reserve due to a shoulder injury. He was cleared to return to practice Wednesday, and the rookie seventh-rounder has a chance to make his NFL regular-season debut Sunday after a week of limited practices. However, if he does return, then Mafah would likely be limited to special teams while serving as the Cowboys' RB4 behind Javonte Williams, Malik Davis and fellow rookie Jaydon Blue (who has been a healthy scratch since Week 9).

  • Cowboys' Phil Mafah: Practice window opens

    Mafah (shoulder) was designated to return from the injured reserve list Wednesday.

    The rookie running back from Clemson was placed on IR in late August due to a shoulder issue, but it now appears he's nearing a return. Mafah has yet to make his NFL debut after posting 1,115 rushing yards, 103 receiving yards and eight total touchdowns during his final collegiate season. He must still be activated to the Cowboys' active roster in order to suit up for the Week 16 matchup against the Chargers.

  • Cowboys' Phil Mafah: Officially lands on IR

    The Cowboys placed Mafah (shoulder) on injured reserve Wednesday.

    Mafah suffered a shoulder injury during the preseason finale and will now be sidelined for a minimum of the first four games of the regular season. He'll likely be buried on the depth chart when he returns, but the Cowboys' running back situation is quite uncertain entering the season.

  • Cowboys' Phil Mafah: Set to miss time with shoulder injury

    The Cowboys plan to place Mafah (shoulder) on IR ahead of Week 1, though the plan is for the running back to return this season, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.

    Per Calvin Watkins of The Dallas Morning News, Mafah got banged up during the Cowboys' preseason finale, and now it appears as though the 2025 seventh-rounder is headed to IR, though not the season-ending variety. Assuming the transaction is timed as expected, Mafah would be eligible to resume practicing after missing a minimum of four games.

  • Cowboys' Phil Mafah: Punches in TD in preseason finale

    Mafah carried the ball twice for 16 yards and a touchdown and failed to catch his only target in Friday's 31-13 preseason win over the Falcons.

    The 2025 seventh-round pick didn't see a touch until the fourth quarter, only entering the game on offense after Jaydon Blue (ankle) hobbled off the field. Mafah took advantage of his opportunity however, getting two red-zone carries and punching in the second one from one yard out for Dallas' final TD of the night. Miles Sanders (shoulder) was also held out of the contest, so the Cowboys' depth chart behind presumed Week 1 starter Javonte Williams could be wide open, with Deuce Vaughn also in the mix along with Mafah for any open spots.
