The Dallas Cowboys (3-5-1) have released their inactives for their Week 11 Monday Night Football matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders (2-7). This will be the first game the team will play without defensive Marshawn Kneeland , who died on Nov. 6.
Ahead of the game, the Cowboys activated safety Malik Hooker off of injured reserve. He has not played since Week 4, as he’s been dealing with a toe injury. Monday night will be the first time that the Cowboys will have Hooker and fellow starting safety Donovan Wilson on the field together.
On Saturday, the Cowboys announced they will not have defensive lineman Solomon Thomas available tonight. Thomas suffered a calf injury ahead of the bye week, and it requires a little more time to heal.
As mentioned earlier, the Cowboys will be playing with heavy hearts because of what happened with Kneeland. It will be challenging, but the Cowboys are committed to doing everything they can to earn a win.
