AUGUST 8, 2025 - Dallas Cowboys head into their Week 4 matchup against the Baltimore Ravens with a significant blow to their defensive unit. Four players - Linebacker DeMarvion Overshown, Safeties P.J. Locke and Malik Hooker, and Cornerback Cobie Durant - have been ruled out for the game in Brazil. This absence leaves Dallas without three starters on defense and the team's third choice safety, Malik Hooker.
Heading into the matchup against a formidable Ravens offense led by former NFL MVP Lamar Jackson and ex-Offensive Player of the Year Derrick Henry, this injury report presents a significant challenge.
However, there is a silver lining for the Cowboys. On 1053 The Fan, Executive Vice President Stephen Jones indicated that both Overshown and Hooker might be available for the following week's game against the Houston Texans. Neither Durant nor Locke appear likely to return for the Houston matchup. Overshown and Hooker, along with the team's defense as a whole, have faced a difficult stretch of games so far, ranking in the bottom three in total defense for the 2025 season and currently holding a 29th place ranking out of 32 teams over the first two games.
The Cowboys' defensive pair could provide crucial support and help the team turn the tide heading into the crucial Week 4 game.
