Cowboys' Donovan Wilson: Available to play Week 16
Wilson (knee/hip) does not carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Chargers, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.
Wilson was limited in each of the first two practices of Week 16 prep due to knee and hip injuries, but he has been given the green light to play Sunday after logging a full practice Friday. The 2019 sixth-rounder has tallied 19 tackles (12 solo), two pass defenses and one forced fumble across the five games since the Cowboys' Week 10 bye.

Cowboys' Donovan Wilson: Limited to open Week 16 prep
Wilson (knee/hip) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Clarence Hill Jr. of AllDLLS.com reports.
Wilson was able to play through a knee injury during the Cowboys' Week 15 loss, when he logged three solo tackles and one pass defense. He's still working through the knee issue and also appears to be working through a hip injury, though his ability to practice Wednesday in a limited capacity indicates that both injuries aren't considered long-term concerns. Wilson has two more opportunities to increase his practice participation and avoid an injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Chargers.

Wilson (knee) was a full participant in Thursday's practice,Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.
Wilson played 95 percent of defensive snaps in last Thursday's loss to the Lions, where he picked up a knee injury. After a limited session Wednesday, the strong safety was able to upgrade to a full participant and is cleared of any injury designation for this Sunday's game against the Vikings.

Cowboys' Donovan Wilson: Limited by knee injury
Wilson (knee) was limited in Wednesday's practice, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.
Wilson likely injured his knee during Dallas' Week 14 loss to Detroit, when he played 59 of 62 defensive snaps (95.2 percent) and logged three tackles. He'll have two more opportunities to increase his practice participation and avoid an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Vikings.

Cowboys' Donovan Wilson: Upgrades to full participation
Wilson (neck) was a full participant for the Cowboys during Tuesday's practice, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.
Wilson had been nursing a neck injury suffered in the Cowboys' Week 12 comeback win over the Eagles. The upgrade to full practice signals he is once again comfortable enough with the issue to play, as he did in the Week 13 Thanksgiving victory over the Chiefs. The starting safety should be set to suit up for Thursday Night Football against the Lions, barring any setbacks.

Cowboys' Donovan Wilson: Still dealing with neck issue
Wilson was limited in practice Monday due to a neck injury, Clarence Hill Jr. of AllDLLS.com reports.
Wilson's neck issue first appeared on last Monday's practice report. He was ultimately cleared to play against Kansas City on Thanksgiving and logged his usual near-every-down role, finishing with five tackles and a forced fumble. It appears that Wilson isn't quite past the injury, but given his ability to play through it last week and to log a limited session Monday, he's probably trending toward playing this Thursday versus Detroit.

Cowboys' Donovan Wilson: Forces fumble in win
Wilson finished with five tackles (two solo) and a forced fumble in Thursday's 31-28 win over the Chiefs.
The safety also played on more than 80 percent of the defensive snaps for the third straight game since returning from an elbow injury that forced him to miss two contests. Wilson has been on the field for most of Dallas' defensive snaps this season when healthy. He has 49 tackles (30 solo), four pass breakups, including two interceptions, and now a forced fumble on the year.

Cowboys' Donovan Wilson: Past neck issue
Wilson (neck) has no injury designation ahead of Thursday's matchup against the Chiefs, Clarence Hill Jr. of AllDLLS.com reports.
Wilson was dealing with a neck injury following the Cowboys' Week 12 win over the Eagles, but he was estimated to practice in full at Wednesday's walkthrough, suggesting he's moved past the issue in time for Thursday's contest. The 30-year-old has appeared in nine games for Dallas this season, recording 44 total tackles and four passes defensed, including two interceptions. Now fully health, Wilson is expected to start alongside Malik Hooker to form the Cowboys' top safety duo in Week 13.

Cowboys' Donovan Wilson: Nursing neck injury
Wilson (neck) was a limited participant in Monday's walkthrough practice, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.
Wilson may have tweaked his neck during the Cowboys' 24-21 overtime win over the Eagles on Sunday, when he played every single defensive snap and finished with five solo tackles and a pass defense. His limited participation in Monday's walkthrough indicates that the injury isn't considered a serious one, and he'll have two more opportunities to increase his practice participation and avoid an injury designation heading into Thursday's game against the Chiefs.

Cowboys' Donovan Wilson: Practices in full

Cowboys' Donovan Wilson: Still nursing elbow injury
Wilson (elbow) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.
Wilson missed two games due to an elbow injury, but he was cleared to play against the Raiders on Monday, when he logged three tackles (two solo) while playing 48 of 60 defensive snaps (80 percent). His limited practice participation Wednesday could be the Cowboys' effort to reduce the risk of Wilson aggravating the injury, and he'll have two more opportunities to increase his practice participation and avoid an injury tag for Sunday's NFC East clash against the Eagles.

Cowboys' Donovan Wilson: Cleared to play Week 11
Wilson (elbow/shoulder) does not carry an injury designation into Monday's game against Las Vegas, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.
Wilson ended Week 11 prep with a full practice Saturday, and he has been cleared to return from a two-game absence due to an elbow injury. The Cowboys could also be getting Malik Hooker (toe) back from injured reserve, further strengthening the team's secondary for MNF.

Cowboys' Donovan Wilson: Limited in practice Thursday
Wilson (elbow) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Nick Harris of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.
Wilson did not play in the Cowboys Week 8 loss to the Broncos nor the Week 9 loss to the Cardinals due to an elbow injury he sustained against the Commanders in Week 7. After resting up during the Cowboys' bye, the starting strong safety returned for Thursday's practice in a limited capacity and looks to be trending up. If the 30-year-old veteran can string together two more practices Friday and Saturday, he has a chance to suit up for his first game since Week 7.

Wilson (elbow) has been ruled out ahead of Monday's game against the Cardinals, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.
Wilson missed Dallas' Week 8 loss to the Broncos and will be in line for his second consecutive absence. With Juanyeh Thomas (migraine) questionable, the Cowboys could be very thin in the back end of their secondary in Monday's matchup against the Cardinals.
