Dallas Cowboys outside linebacker Bruce Carter could miss some time after straining his quadricep against New Orleans, owner Jerry Jones said on his weekly radio show on KRLD-FM.
Via the Fort Worth Star-Telegram, Jones said the injury is "week-to-week" with Carter potentially missing Sunday's game against the Texans. However, it's not deemed a long-term injury, which is somewhat good news for a Cowboys defense that is playing much better than people expected.
"These injuries, quad strains, are not long-term injuries," Jones said. "But you say, ‘Well, missing a game is getting pretty long term when you don’t have but 16 of them,’ but still we’ll have to see with him. If he’s moving pretty good…. I think Carter is a good healer, and some people heal faster than others. So we’ll want to keep a close eye on him.”
