The Dallas Cowboys have some positive momentum coming off Sunday’s comeback victory over the division-rival Philadelphia Eagles.
Dallas trailed 21-0 in the second quarter before mounting a furious comeback, scoring 24 unanswered points in front of the home crowd at AT&T Stadium. Dak Prescott finished the game with 354 yards, two touchdowns and one interception on 23/36 passing, connecting with star wide receiver George Pickens on nine catches for 146 yards and a TD.
The Cowboys have now stacked two consecutive wins, holding a 5-5-1 record heading into Thursday’s Thanksgiving Day matchup against Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs.
Unfortunately for Prescott and the Dallas offense, they’ll likely be without starting left tackle Tyler Guyton — who’s put together some solid performances in each of the team’s last two wins.
Guyton suffered a high-ankle sprain during Sunday’s Week 12 win over the Eagles and is now unlikely to play in Thursday’s Week 13 clash against the Chiefs, according to Cowboys insider Todd Archer of ESPN.

If Guyton is unable to go as expected, he’ll be replaced by 2024 seventh-round draft pick Nate Thomas in the Cowboys’ starting lineup.
Guyton was replaced by Thomas after exiting Sunday’s win over the Eagles in the second half. Thomas also started in place of Guyton when he missed Dallas’ Week 5 win over the New York Jets with a concussion.
Guyton joined the Cowboys as their No. 29 overall draft pick in 2024. Since his arrival in Dallas, the 6-foot-7, 322 lbs offensive tackle has started 21 of his 25 game appearances.
