The Dallas Cowboys have been clipped by injuries, and here are two players struggling early in the 2025 NFL training camp.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The injuries have begun to mount up\u00a0for the Dallas Cowboys, including\u00a0an offensive tackle\u00a0and a player at the guard position. And one of those is a key Cowboys player who is struggling early in the 2025\u00a0NFL training camp.<\/p>\n

Tyler Guyton got good news about his injury in the form of a bone fracture. That sounds bad, but it\u2019s better than the ACL injury he was first believed to have suffered.<\/p>\n

The other player on this list is a guy also dealing with an injury. Let\u2019s take a look at these struggling Cowboys players.<\/p>\n

Injuries happen, but this is a tough blow for Guyton and Cowboys’ first-year head coach Brian Schottenheimer. This is the second straight training camp where Guyton has missed valuable time in preparation for the season. The good news is he\u00a0could be back\u00a0for the start of the season, according to dallascowboys.com.<\/p>\n

Guyton said he had hoped to avoid injuries this season.<\/p>\n

\u201cI want to be the guy that can be depended on,\u201d Guyton said in May. \u201cI just feel like I had a lot to prove and I needed to work on things. And getting in here earlier was the way I was gonna do it. I’m not going to make any excuses. I just didn’t play as good as I needed to last year.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Also, Guyton said he was ripped and ready for the 2025 season.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy body feels great,\u201d Guyton said. \u201cI feel a big difference from last year to this year in terms of my stamina, my strength on the football field going into training camp, so big improvement.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

If Guyton returns for Week 1, the Cowboys won\u2019t have to fret too much over a replacement. However, they have\u00a0to make plans, just in case, according to nytimes.com.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe top candidates include Hakeem Adeniji, Asim Richards, Thomas, rookie Ajani Cornelius, or veteran Matt Waletzko,\u201d Jon Machota wrote. \u201cOf that group, Adeniji, 27, has the most experience with 15 NFL starts in 43 games over the last five seasons with the Cincinnati Bengals, Minnesota Vikings, and Cleveland Browns. He was a sixth-round pick in 2020.<\/p>\n

\u201cRichards was a fifth-round pick by the Cowboys in 2023. He has one start in his NFL career, last year against the Philadelphia Eagles at AT&T Stadium. Thomas is a player who has grabbed the coaching staff\u2019s attention over the last few months. He was a seventh-round pick last year. Cornelius was drafted in the sixth round this year. Waletzko, a fifth-round pick in 2022, has struggled to stay healthy.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

The Cowboys grabbed Guyton with the No. 29 pick overall in the 2024 NFL Draft. He started 11 games with mixed results at times. But big things are expected of him this year. And with the better injury prognosis, he may still get to prove he\u2019s better than he showed as a rookie.<\/p>\n

CB Trevon Diggs battling back<\/strong><\/h2>\n

It has been a long road for Diggs, and there\u2019s\u00a0still no word\u00a0on when he will be ready to get back to practicing, according to espn.com.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe continues to rehab from his second surgery on his left knee in as many years,\u201d Todd Archer wrote. \u201cHe remains on the physically unable to perform list, working daily through his rehab. On Sunday, he went through some on-field drills with strength and conditioning coach Harold Nash.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Still, Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said he\u2019s enthusiastic about the possibilities for Diggs.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt’s good that he’s out there,\u201d Jones said. \u201cHe’s talking to these younger guys and where we are especially at corner, we need him and his experience out there, talking to these guys. I’ll assure you that the minute that he’s able to go, I’m counting on him. And we’re counting on him being a big addition.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

The good news is Diggs plans to be back\u00a0on the field\u00a0in September, according to Clarence Hill of All City DLLS via nbcsports.com.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe might not make it back by Sept. 4 for the first game against the Eagles,\u201d Charean Williams wrote. \u201cBut Diggs is ahead of schedule in his rehab and hopes to be on the field sometime in September. Diggs told Clarence Hill of All City DLLS he will not need to be placed on the reserve\/physically unable to perform list, which would keep him out at least four games. He missed six games with his knee injury last season.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

The Cowboys hit Diggs with a $500,000 salary reduction because he didn\u2019t rehab at the team facility enough. But Diggs said his team in South Florida has gotten him back quicker than expected. Diggs plans\u00a0to get it back, according to dallascowboys.com.<\/p>\n

\u201c(I’ll) hopefully make it back in incentives,\u201d Diggs said.<\/p>\n

He said his rehab group does a great job.<\/p>\n

\u201cI just felt like it was in my best interest to go somewhere to get the full, undivided attention I needed,\u201d Diggs said. \u201cMassages and the whole nine yards, to better and further my career, to make sure I’m good, ahead of schedule. And that I can perform well. Like (when I tore) my ACL, I came back a whole two months earlier because of the work I put in during the offseason, off the field.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cMy work is gonna show. What I put into it is gonna show on the field.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
