Morris Claiborne<\/strong> has been playing like a man on a mission and having himself a Pro Bowl caliber season, but he suffered an injury against the Philadelphia Eagles.<\/p>\n The injury is being called a groin injury and Todd Archer<\/strong> is reporting that the injury is a sports hernia<\/strong><\/a> which may require surgery. Surgery would not end his season, but he will miss significant time.<\/p>\n Terrance Newman<\/strong> and Jay Ratliff had this same injury with the Cowboys. Newman tried to play through it:<\/p>\n “It had been painful, but it wasn’t something in those first two games where I felt I was really hurting myself,” Newman said Wednesday in a phone conversation. “It was kind of a dull pain, not something that affected me a whole lot. But last week, it really hurt and I couldn’t open up and run and that’s why I didn’t play.” (ESPN, Werder<\/a>)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Claiborne’s biggest knock has been his health, he has yet to complete a full season since coming into the league.<\/p>\n To me, he was having the type of season that would earn you another contract, but this set back may have the Cowboys looking elsewhere at the end of the season.<\/p>\n Recovery time is between 3-6 weeks. So, let’s say Mo is out for the 6 games, that would put his return around December against the NY Giants. Let’s hope for a speedy recovery.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Morris Claiborne has been playing like a man on a mission and having himself a Pro Bowl caliber season, but…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":543522,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[703638416],"tags":[78289551,59316225,2920886],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
