theeohiostate Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 ESPN's Chris Mortensen reports that the Cowboys fear Miles Austin may be out until their Week 5 bye after re-pulling his hamstring in Sunday's win over San Francisco. The idea would be to make sure Austin's hamstring has fully healed, let Dez Bryant "replace" him as the go-to receiver, and bring Austin back after a three-week stint on the shelf. Jerry Jones speaks openly on injury situations, so expect another update shortly. Austin destroyed the 49ers for 143 yards and three TDs on nine catches Sunday. He's already got four scores on the year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grits and Shins Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 I avoided Austin because of the hammy issues he was having in pre-season - it may have been the only right decision I made. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tripleshot Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 (edited) The idea would be to make sure Austin's hamstring has fully healed, let Dez Bryant "replace" him as the go-to receiver, and bring Austin back after a three-week stint on the shelf. Wouldn't Bryant have to be healthy himself to take over as the go-to receiver? Edited September 19, 2011 by Tripleshot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ditkaless Wonders Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 A costly victory. Still, a victory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrTed46 Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 He injured his hammy on a VERY dumb play IMO. Why would you line him up in the backfield and have him run up the gut? Very poor play calling, I understand a screen pass but that was dumb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
