Sources - Cowboys' DeMarvion Overshown tore multiple ligaments - ESPN

FRISCO, Texas — Dallas Cowboys linebacker DeMarvion Overshown tore the ACL, MCL and PCL in his right knee and is scheduled to have surgery this week, according to multiple sources.

Significant recovery time will be needed after surgery, sources said.

Owner and general manager Jerry Jones said Tuesday on 105.3 The Fan in Dallas that Overshown would have surgery, but that he was not sure when Overshown would return.

Multiple sources said after the Cowboys' 27-20 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals that Overshown's injury was more than just a tear of the ACL.

«I don't know at this time the time-date on his rehab,» Jones said earlier Tuesday, «but I just can't tell you how bad I feel for him because he's just been through that mental and physical rehab on his other knee.… It's the toughest time for a player. And we all see the loss and know what it's going to mean for us in our remaining four games. Bottom line is it's really sad that he's having to have this surgery for him as an individual and obviously us as a team.»

Overshown took a hit to the side of his right leg on a 2-yard run by Chase Brown with 12:49 left in the game. He remained on the field unable to move his leg before the medical team arrived to treat him. He immediately went to the locker room for more examination.

Coach Mike McCarthy said after the game that the injury was «of a serious nature» and that «it's not good.» Overshown missed his rookie season in 2023 with a torn ACL in his left knee.

«I think the whole sideline felt that because it didn't look good,» McCarthy said. «It definitely hit a lot of the guys.»

Edge rusher Micah Parsons had tears in his eyes after the game when talking about Overshown.

«I cried,» he said. «It's like my little bro, bro. He
