Dallas Cowboys linebacker DeMarvion Overshown is not listed on the injury report for Monday night against the Las Vegas Raiders, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported. Overshown had missed the previous nine games to start this season as he recovered after tearing his ACL, MCL and PCL in Week 14 of last season.
Overshown practiced for the first time on Oct. 22 and has been slowly working his way back with this date in mind. He’s right on schedule and will return to the field for the first time in almost a year.
A third-round pick out of Texas in the 2023 NFL Draft, Overshown has already had two major injuries in his career. He missed his entire rookie season due to a torn ACL suffered in the preseason.
As such, Overshown has played only 13 games across his pro career thus far, all of which came last season. He looked impressive in that span, recording 90 total tackles, five sacks, one interception, one forced fumble and four passes defended.
Overshown is keeping his expectations level heading into his first game back, but is excited for the opportunity to return to the field. He spoke last month about his motivation to prove to those worried about the severity of his injuries that he can bounce back and return to previous form.
