Dallas will be without four players against the Baltimore Ravens in Rio de Janeiro as injuries prompt multiple roster changes. Safety P.J. Locke is headed to injured reserve after hurting his foot against Washington, a move that keeps him out for at least four more weeks. Safety Malik Hooker, recovering from a fractured forearm, also remains unavailable.

Linebacker DeMarvion Overshown and cornerback Cobie Durant were ruled out with hamstring injuries. Durant, a starter, was hurt during Dallas’ Week 2 win over Washington. Linebackers Jaishawn Barham and Dee Winters also sustained injuries in that game but finished it.

Linebacker Barron is now on Dallas’ 53-player roster after previously being brought up from the practice squad for one game. His addition provides depth with Overshown sidelined. The Cowboys also elevated cornerback Reddy Steward for the Ravens matchup.

Steward logged substantial defensive work for Dallas in 2025 while playing nickel cornerback, and he has also taken occasional snaps at safety. His ability to fill either role adds an option behind safeties Jalen Thompson, Caleb Downs, Markquese Bell and Alijah Clark. The Dallas Cowboys’ official website reported the changes.
