AMANI ORUWARIYE NEWS

Placed on IR due to foot injury The Cowboys placed Oruwariye (foot) on injured reserve Saturday.

Impact Oruwariye was already ruled out for Sunday's game against the Eagles due to a foot injury. With the Cowboys eliminated from playoff contention, Oruwariye's placement on IR means he will also be sidelined for the regular-season finale against the Commanders. It's the second time Oruwariye has been placed on IR this season as he missed five games earlier in the year due to a back injury. He'll end the 2024 campaign with 29 tackles (23 solo) and three pass defenses (including one interception) across seven regular-season games.

Ruled out Sunday Oruwariye (foot) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Eagles, Clarence E. Hill Jr. of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.

Impact Oruwariye downgraded from limited participation to a DNP at Friday's practice due to a foot injury, so it's no surprise he won't suit up for Sunday's divisional matchup. The Cowboys' defense will now be without two of their top three corners, Oruwariye and Trevon Diggs (knee), in Week 17. C.J. Goodwin and Andrew Booth are likely to see increased work with Dallas' first-team secondary.

Limited Thursday Oruwariye (foot) was a limited participant in practice Thursday, Ralph Vacchiano of Fox Sports reports.

Impact The cornerback was not listed on Wednesday's injury report. Oruwariye has played on 64 and 99 percent of Dallas' defensive snaps over the last two games with Trevon Diggs out due to season-ending knee surgery. If Oruwariye can't play Sunday against the Eagles, Andrew Booth or C.J. Goodwin might be in line to see more snaps.

Impact Oruwariye suffered the injury in Sunday's loss to the 49ers and was unable to return to the game. He'll now be sidelined for at least the Cowboys' next four games, while he tends to the injury. With DaRon Bland (foot) expected to return this week, Oruwariye's absence may be lessened, but it'll still be a blow to Dallas' secondary depth.
