FRISCO, Texas — The Dallas Cowboys ruled out cornerback Cobie Durant and offensive tackle Drew Shelton for Sunday night’s game at the Green Bay Packers, and listed linebacker DeMarvion Overshown, cornerback Joey Porter Jr., defensive tackle L.T. Overton, and cornerback Ameer Speed as questionable on Friday’s final injury report.

Durant and Shelton did not practice all week with hamstring injuries. Overshown was limited Thursday and Friday with his hamstring after missing Wednesday, and coach Brian Schottenheimer said Friday that he still considers Overshown a long shot.

“Yeah, doing okay. Again, I still think it’s probably a long shot for this game, but it was good to see him out there moving around a little bit better,” Schottenheimer said.

A New Ankle Listing For Joey Porter Jr.

Porter appeared on the report with an ankle injury. He was limited Wednesday, a full participant Thursday, and limited again Friday. Porter missed last week’s loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers with an illness, and defensive coordinator Christian Parker said Thursday that Porter’s workload would be heavily increased this week.

Overton was added to the report Friday with a foot injury and did not practice. Speed was limited Thursday and Friday with a knee injury after missing Wednesday.

Full Go For CeeDee Lamb, Tyler Smith, And Alijah Clark

Safety Alijah Clark, who has been dealing with a hamstring injury, practiced fully all three days and carries no game status. So did left tackle Tyler Guyton with a back injury, outside linebacker James Houston with a shoulder injury, receiver CeeDee Lamb with a thigh injury, cornerback Shavon Revel with a knee injury, and left guard Tyler Smith with his surgically repaired thumb.

Lamb said Thursday that his thigh bruise started in the second quarter of the Cowboys’ win at Houston and that he was back to square one after the mini-bye.

Packers Rule Out Four, Including Javon Hargrave

Green Bay ruled out defensive tackles Jonathan Ford and Javon Hargrave, receiver Skyy Moore, and cornerback Benjamin St-Juste. Defensive tackle Jordon Riley, who is in his 21-day return-to-practice window, is doubtful with an Achilles injury.

Guard Aaron Banks is questionable with a knee and toe injury, along with defensive tackle Anthony Campbell with an ankle injury, cornerback Brandon Cisse with a hip injury added Friday, center/guard Jacob Monk with a quadriceps injury, and receiver Savion Williams, who has an ankle injury and is also in his return window.

Cornerback Keisean Nixon, edge rusher Lukas Van Ness, safety Evan Williams, and defensive tackle Devonte Wyatt carry no game status. Micah Parsons, who is recovering from a torn ACL, is not on the report.

Kickoff at Lambeau Field is set for 7:20 p.m. CT on Sunday, Oct. 18, on NBC.
