Coach Mike McCarthy said Friday that Thompson "will miss some time" due to a hamstring injury, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports. Thompson was elevated from the practice squad ahead of Thursday's Week 1 loss to the Buccaneers, and he played 26 snaps on special teams. However, he apparently suffered a hamstring injury during the contest. McCarthy didn't offer a timetable for the safety's return, but he should tentatively be considered week-to-week.

Thompson (arm) won't carry an injury designation into Thursday's game against the Bears, Calvin Watkins of The Dallas Morning News reports. Since Jeff Heath (shoulder) has been ruled out, Thompson is expected to make his second straight start. The 26-year-old was solid in Week 13 against the Bills with four tackles, 0.5 sacks and a pass breakup.

Thompson will start in Xavier Woods' (ankle) place at free safety in Sunday's game against Miami, The Dallas Morning News reports. Thompson has yet to play a defensive snap this season, as he was inactive for the season opener and only saw 11 snaps on special teams in last Sunday's victory over Washington. The last time the 25-year-old saw a starting role was in 2017 with the Giants, when he logged 1,065 defensive snaps, 75 total tackles, six pass breakups and an interception over 16 games.

Thompson (groin) signed a one-year contract with the Cowboys on Thursday, Todd Archer of ESPN reports. Thompson was a third-round draft pick of the Giants back in 2016 and originally came to Dallas last October when the Cowboys signed him off the Cardinals' practice squad. While the Boise State product didn't see much playing time last year, Archer reports that the Cowboys believe a full year in their offseason program will give the defensive back a chance to contribute on defense.
