Dallas Cowboys cornerback Stephon Gilmore suffered a right shoulder injury during a game against the Commanders, leading to concerns about his ability to continue playing. Gilmore was seen walking slowly to the sideline medical tent and later leaving the field with a health issue, heading to the blue tent. Initial reports indicated that he hurt his wrist or shoulder, but it was later confirmed to be a shoulder injury. The Cowboys listed Gilmore as questionable to return, and he was eventually ruled out for the remainder of the game. Despite the injury, Cowboys coach Mike McCarthy and Gilmore himself provided optimistic updates. Gilmore stated his shoulder popped out of place but was popped back in, and he expressed confidence in being ready for the next game against the Packers in the first round of the playoffs, a key wild card matchup.
