Tyler Guyton, doubtful for Thanksgiving game
The Dallas Cowboys’ left tackle, Tyler Guyton, is unlikely to play in the Thanksgiving game against the Kansas City Chiefs due to a high ankle sprain suffered in the second half of Sunday’s game against the Philadelphia Eagles, according to sources.
Although the injury is considered on the “milder” side of a typical high ankle sprain, the short turnaround of four days makes it difficult for Guyton to be ready to play on Thursday. The Cowboys will hold a couple of light practices this week to prepare for the Chiefs.
The Cowboys’ Week 14 game is on December 4th against the Detroit Lions.
After suffering the injury, Guyton was listed as questionable to return, but he did not re-enter the game.
Nate Thomas would make his second start of his career if Guyton doesn’t play. He started the Cowboys’ Week 5 victory against the New York Jets, with Guyton out due to a concussion. He played the final 31 snaps of the game against the Eagles and held up well against Philadelphia’s front line.
Hakeem Adeniji would serve as the backup tackle.
