"The Dallas Cowboys' defense could soon be welcoming back one of its most dynamic young playmakers. LB DeMarvion Overshown, who tore his ACL during the 2024 season, is reportedly nearing the opening of his 21-day practice window in the next one to two weeks. The third-year linebacker out of Texas was expected to be a versatile weapon for DC Matt Eberflus, and his absence has been felt deeply through the first stretch of the season."
"When a player is designated to return from injured reserve, NFL teams have a 21-day window to evaluate him in practice before activating him to the 53-man roster. During that time, the player can practice in full, giving coaches and medical staff a chance to assess his readiness without immediately using a roster spot. For Overshown, the Cowboys are expected to open that window sometime within the next two weeks."
DeMarvion Overshown, recovering from a 2024 ACL tear, is approaching the opening of his 21-day practice window and may begin practicing within one to two weeks. The 21-day window allows full practice evaluation before using a 53-man roster spot so coaches and medical staff can assess readiness. If opened next week he could be available as early as Week 9, though the Cowboys might delay a return until after the Week 10 bye, targeting Weeks 11 or 12. Overshown’s speed, instincts, and versatility can strengthen the second level and help prepare for critical NFC matchups. A cautious ramp-up reduces risk of setbacks and aids scheme reacclimation.
