The Cowboys are set to lose All-Pro cornerback DaRon Bland for 6-8 weeks due to a stress fracture in his left foot, impacting their defensive lineup significantly.
Bland, who led the NFL with nine interceptions last year and set a record with five return touchdowns, underwent surgery on the fifth metatarsal.
With Bland sidelined, the Cowboys will rely on Pro Bowl cornerback Trevon Diggs, who returns after missing last season due to a torn ACL.
New defensive coordinator Mike Zimmer's plans are disrupted by Bland's absence, as he was part of a promising cornerback pairing alongside Diggs.
