The Dallas Cowboys made significant roster alterations, promoting safety Juanyeh Thomas from the practice squad to the active roster and waiving cornerback Caelen Carson in the process. Additionally, the team added quarterback Kyle Trask to their practice squad as a replacement for Joe Milton, who jettisoned for Philadelphia's 53-man roster a week ago.
On the injury front, Dallas received great news as linebacker DeMarvion Overshown is expected to return against the Eagles for their Monday Night showdown. Cornerback Cobie Durant is also trending towards a potential return.
As Dallas preps for Philadelphia, the Eagles have gone through a myriad of obstacles which include scrutiny from how they handled quarterback Jalen Hurts blood clot situation. The team also made a flurry of roster moves which included the release of former Cowboys running back Jaydon Blue.
Around the NFL, the Commanders announced the loss of wideout Terry McLaurin for the season due to a serious knee injury suffered against the 49ers. The Rams were equally as unfortunate placing two starters, including receiver Davante Adams, on injured reserve to serious injuries as well. Lastly, the Giants released RB Najee Harris who started in place of the benched Cam Skattebo just a week ago. Here's a look around at the biggest headlines from Tuesday, October 20, 2026.
