Dallas Cowboys rookie defensive end Marshawn Kneeland will require arthroscopic surgery for a meniscus tear, potentially sidelining him for four to six weeks, despite avoiding an ACL tear.
Kneeland's injury impacts the Cowboys' defensive line, which is already dealing with Micah Parsons' ankle sprain and DeMarcus Lawrence's Lisfranc injury, as they seek mid-November returns.
Coach Mike McCarthy mentioned that they were prepared for the risk of injury by working with linebackers at the defensive end position during the game against the Steelers.
The Cowboys will likely need to reinforce the defensive line, especially after Kneeland's injury, as the team considers adding players to the 53-man roster.
