"Following the Dallas Cowboys' harrowing win over the Kansas City Chiefs, the team could take a major step forward this week with a win on the road against the Detroit Lions. The Lions are currently one game ahead of the Cowboys in the win column, and should they win this week, Dallas could close ground on the seventh and final Wild Card spot in the NFC."
"Cornerback Trevon Diggs (knee) was limited to open the week of practice. There's optimism that Diggs will play Thursday against Detroit and a limited showing today is at least a positive sign. However, offensive tackle Tyler Guyton (ankle) did not practice today and could miss this week's game. If he cannot go, Nathan Thomas will get the start in his absence."
Dallas can narrow the NFC Wild Card gap with a road win at Detroit after a win over Kansas City. The Lions sit one game ahead of Dallas in the standings, and a Detroit victory would keep them ahead for the seventh seed. Both teams begin the week dealing with injuries. Trevon Diggs was limited in practice with a knee issue but there is optimism he will play Thursday. Tyler Guyton did not practice with an ankle problem and could miss the game; Nathan Thomas would start if Guyton is unavailable. Caelen Carson was a full participant and DaRon Bland practiced while managing foot and wrist injuries. Jadeveon Clowney sat out with a hamstring issue and multiple Cowboys veterans were limited. For Detroit, Amon-Ra St. Brown and Khalif Raymond did not practice and St. Brown is expected to miss Thursday, while safety Kerby Joseph was limited with a knee issue.
