Overshown underwent a successful procedure Wednesday to repair the ACL, MCL and PCL in his right knee, Jordan Schultz of Fox Sports reports. After the surgery, there's optimism Overshown could return to game action as soon as the middle of the 2025 season, an encouraging prognosis considering the nature of the injury he suffered in Week 14. In the meantime, promising rookie third-rounder Marist Liufau projects to continue to play a major role at linebacker.

Overshown (hamstring) does not carry an injury designation into Monday night's game against the Bengals, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports. Overshown was limited in the Cowboys' first two practices of the week due to a hamstring injury, but he managed to finish strong with a full practice Saturday and is good to go for Monday's contest. In the six games since the Cowboys' Week 7 bye, Overshown has logged 43 tackles (24 solo), including 4.0 sacks, one fumble recovery and a pick-six.

Overshown (knee) was a full practice participant Thursday, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports. Overshown underwent X-rays on his knee following the Cowboys' Week 10 loss to the Eagles. He was diagnosed with bursitis in his right knee, but that doesn't appear to be a major issue as he was able to practice Thursday without limitations. Unless he suffers a setback, Overshown should suit up against Houston on Monday. In the three games since Dallas' Week 7 bye, Overshown has logged 26 tackles (14 solo), including 3.0 sacks.

Overshown's X-rays on his knee following Sunday's game versus the Eagles came back negative, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. Overshown was diagnosed with bursitis in his right knee, which doesn't seem like it should keep him off the field for too long. Dallas' first official practice report of the week Thursday should provide more information related to his potential availability for a Week 11 Monday night clash against the Texans.

Overshown (knee) recorded a team-high 11 tackles, including 2.0 sacks, in Sunday's loss to the Eagles. The second-year linebacker, who missed his entire rookie campaign due to a torn ACL, put together the first multi-sack game of his career while tying his career high in tackles. Overshown left the game midway through the third quarter after a rough landing on his knee, but per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, the injury isn't thought to be serious. Overshown seems likely to be back in the lineup for a Week 11 clash with the Texans.
