Carson (shoulder/hamstring) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Chargers, Joe Hoyt of The Dallas Morning News reports. Carson was working through shoulder and hamstring injuries during Week 16 prep, but those injuries will prevent him from playing in Sunday's home tilt. In his absence, rookie Shavon Revel and the returning Trevon Diggs will likely serve as the Cowboys' starting outside cornerbacks. Carson's next opportunity to play is Christmas Day against the Commanders.

Carson (shoulder/hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Chargers, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports. Carson was limited in practice all week due to shoulder and hamstring injuries, and his status for Sunday's game may not be officially known until the Cowboys announce their list of inactive players approximately 90 minutes before the 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff. DaRon Bland (foot) has already been ruled out, and if Carson joins the former on the sidelines for Week 16, then Trikweze Bridges, C.J. Goodwin and rookie third-rounder Shavon Revel would be slated to see more defensive snaps at outside corner.

Carson (hamstring) was a full participant in practice Monday, Clarence Hill Jr. of AllDLLS.com reports. Carson was unable to play in Thursday's Week 13 win over Kansas City due to a hamstring injury. However, his ability to practice in full Monday suggests he has a good chance of returning to action this Thursday versus Detroit. Rookie Shavon Revel stepped into a starting role on Thanksgiving in Carson's absence, but Revel would likely revert to more of a rotational role should Carson be able to return against the Lions.

The Cowboys activated Carson (knee) from injured reserve Saturday, but he remains questionable for Sunday's game versus the Commanders. Now that he's off IR, Carson is in line to make his 2025 regular-season debut this weekend. The 2024 fifth-rounder could play a large role in the Cowboys' secondary immediately, given that corner Trevon Diggs (concussion) has been ruled out and safety Juanyeh Thomas (migraine) is listed as questionable. Carson accumulated 27 tackles (24 solo) and four pass defenses across six regular-season games during his rookie campaign.

Carson (knee) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports. Carson was a full participant in practice leading up to the Cowboys' Week 6 road clash against the Panthers, but the 2024 fifth-rounder was ultimately not cleared to be reinstated from injured reserve. However, Carson would stand a good chance to make his 2025 regular-season debut against the Commanders on Sunday with a slate of full practices this week. He is in the final stages of his recovery from a knee injury that he sustained during training camp in late July.
