Out Week 14 with groin injury Head coach Mike McCarthy said Thursday that Brown is dealing with a groin injury that will sideline the receiver for Sunday's game against Washington, and possibly additional conte... Impact Brown appeared on the Cowboys' initial Week 14 injury report Wednesday after he didn't take any reps in practice, but the team hadn't previously disclosed that the receiver was banged up at any point during last week's win over the Saints. McCarthy shed more light on the situation Thursday, and after the coach described Brown's groin issue as a "couple-week injury," the Ohio State product looks like he'll face an uphill battle to make it back for the Cowboys' Week 15 game against the Giants, too. After turning in a 6-53-0 receiving line on nine targets while playing a season-high 94 percent of the Cowboys' offensive snaps in a Thanksgiving Day loss to the Raiders, Brown predictably saw his snap share take a big step back (to 18 percent) last week following the returns of Amari Cooper (reserve/COVID-19 list) and CeeDee Lamb (concussion) to the lineup. Brown will likely be limited to a depth role within the Dallas receiving corps once he moves past his groin injury.
