Cowboys Injury Report and Inactives Tonight
The Cowboys' first Week 4 injury report came out on Monday, and Pro Bowlers CeeDee Lamb (ankle) and Trevon Diggs (foot) were listed, but both were full participants in practice all week and do not carry injury designations into Thursday night.
Defensive linemen Demarcus Lawrence (shoulder) and Mazi Smith (back) were also listed, but they are good to go as well. However, defensive backs Markquese Bell (ankle) and Caelen Carson (back) did not practice at all this week and are listed as doubtful tonight. Players who are listed as doubtful almost always miss the game.
Cowboys are listing S Markquese Bell (ankle) and CB Caelan Carson (shoulder) as doubtful. That does not bode well for either to play. Look for the Cowboys to call up a corner from practice squad and perhaps have Jourdan Lewis start at outside corner and play inside in nickel.

Giants Injury Report and Inactives Tonight
The Giants began Week 4 preparation with eight players on the injury report. Starting offensive linemen John Michael Schmitz (neck) and Jermaine Eluemunor (thumb) are dealing with minor injuries but were removed from the injury report on Wednesday.
Defenders Dexter Lawrence II (foot), Nick McCloud (knee), and Micah McFadden (back) all could only turn in limited practices this week, but they are also in line to suit up against Dallas.
Cornerbacks Adoree' Jackson (calf) and Dru Phillips (calf) have been ruled out, while Darius Slayton (thumb) is officially questionable to play on Thursday.
Slayton is not on the fantasy football radar as the WR3 behind Malik Nabers and Wan'Dale Robinson, but if he's out, second-year pro Jalin Hyatt could be utilized as a cheap DFS flex play. Ultimately, the Giants are relatively healthy heading into the fourth game of the year.
