DeMarvion Overshown optimistic about return as Cowboys linebacker recovers from knee injury

Dallas Cowboys linebacker DeMarvion Overshown is making strides in his recovery from a severe knee injury sustained late last season, a development that will undoubtedly bring relief to Cowboys fans.

Injury Background

Overshown, who was placed on the Physically Unable to Perform (PUP) list at the start of the season, suffered a devastating knee injury during Week 14 against the Cincinnati Bengals. The injury was severe, involving tears to his ACL, PCL, and MCL, a setback that followed another ACL tear he experienced during the preseason of his rookie year in 2023. As the Cowboys bolstered their defense with the addition of former No. 1 overall pick Jadeveon Clowney, Overshown’s recovery has remained a focal point for the team.

Positive Recovery Updates

Recently, Overshown shared encouraging news regarding his rehabilitation. Speaking during a United Healthcare Cowboys event, he expressed optimism about his recovery. “The knee is healthy. I’m moving around fast, strong. Now just being smart with the timing,” he stated, reflecting his commitment to a cautious yet determined approach to his return.

There has been speculation that Overshown could be ready to play in time for the Thanksgiving Day game against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 13. While he refrained from officially confirming this timeline, he conveyed a positive outlook. “I don’t want to say that’s the target date, but I feel like I’ll be playing football before Thanksgiving with the team,” he remarked, leaving fans hopeful for a return to action sooner rather than later.

Looking Ahead

As the Cowboys navigate the early part of the season, Overshown’s progress will be closely monitored. His ability to rejoin the team and contribute to the defense will be crucial, particularly as the Cowboys aim for a successful campaign. With his determination and the supportive environment of the franchise, fans are eager to see Overshown back on the field, providing a much-needed boost to the roster.
