It’s the latest setback for a Cowboys offensive line that has battled injuries all season long. The team’s regular starting tackles, Tyron Smith and La’el Collins, are on Reserve/Injured after having neck and hip surgery, respectively, earlier this season. Rookie center Tyler Biadasz is currently on IR with a hamstring injury.
Seeking to balance out the line, the Cowboys moved Martin out to right tackle and started Connor McGovern at right guard in last Sunday’s 31-28 victory at Minnesota. The coaching staff stuck with the same combination against Washington.
Injuries to Martin and Erving changed the lineup yet again. Brandon Knight, back from a stint on IR, filled in at left tackle and rookie Terence Steele replaced Martin at right tackle.
