Leighton Vander Esch Ruled Out Against Bills
5 years agoDallas Cowboys linebacker Leighton Vander Esch (neck) didn't practice all week and has been ruled out for Thursday against the Bills. Defensive tackle Antwaun Woods (knee) was also ruled out for Dallas. LVE hasn't played since Nov. 17 against the Lions. He's a menacing presence in the middle of the field when healthy, so his absence will continue to be a downgrade for the Dallas interior defense. He has 72 total tackles, half a sack and one forced fumble on the season. His injury is good news for Bills running backs Devin Singletary and Frank Gore.
