Cowboys BREAKING: TE Blake Jarwin Surgery Clouds Status; Re-Think Signing Dalton Schultz? Jarwin “is not expected to be available for the start of the 2022 season, clouding his Cowboys future.’’

MARCH 3, 2022 • STAR-TELEGRAM.COM

Unlikely to be ready to begin 2022 Jarwin isn't expected to be available for the start of the 2022 campaign after he recently underwent hip surgery, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Impact Jarwin's procedure is usually reserved for hockey and basketball players, and the surgery is uncommon among active NFL players. While the Cowboys are optimistic in his ability to recover, he's expected to carry a timetable of 6-to-8 months before he's cleared to return, Clarence E. Hill Jr. of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports. As a result, the team could choose to restructure his contract or cut him during the offseason. Dalton Schultz is slated to become an unrestricted free agent in mid-March, so the Cowboys could make a push to bring him back or give him the franchise tag.

Progress Report: Blake Jarwin Battled Injury Again Our “Progress Report” series continues with tight end Blake Jarwin, who again proved to be a productive red zone option when healthy.

FEBRUARY 23, 2022 • DALLASCOWBOYS.COM

Another injury-plagued campaign Jarwin caught 11 of 17 targets for 96 yards and two touchdowns over eight games this season.

Impact Once again, injuries cut short Jarwin's campaign, as this time a hip issue cost him most of the second half. The tight end has two years and $11.5 million left on his current contract and has suited up for only nine games over the last two seasons, and while the Cowboys could get out of the deal without taking much of a salary cap hit, they're more likely to hang onto Jarwin and hope he can stay healthy in 2022 with Dalton Schultz potentially priced out of their plans as a free agent.

Makes catch in return Jarwin caught one of two targets for six yards in Saturday's win over the Eagles.

Impact Making his return from a nine-game absence due to a hip injury, Jarwin was eased back into action and saw only 12 snaps. He also showed his rust on the target he didn't catch, letting a potential touchdown slip through his hands at the end of the second quarter. Dalton Schultz is the clear No. 1 tight end for Dallas, but Jarwin could see a larger role in the offense when the Cowboys host the 49ers in the wild-card round Sunday.

Returns off IR Jarwin (hip) was activated off injured reserve Saturday.

Impact Jarwin hasn't played since injuring his hip in Week 8, but prior to that the veteran tight end had fallen out of favor for the emerging Dalton Schultz. Don't expect that to change, particularly with Schultz solidifying his role as the No. 1 tight end in recent weeks.

Playoff-bound Cowboys, Eagles meet with little at stake

The NFC East champion Dallas Cowboys visit the playoff-bound Philadelphia Eagles in a game that will only determine seeding in the playoffs

Ready for practice The Cowboys designated Jarwin (hip) for return from injured reserve Tuesday.

Impact The transaction opens up a 21-day window for the Cowboys to evaluate Jarwin in practice before either adding him to the 53-man roster or keeping him on IR for the remainder of the season. Before he was sidelined following Week 8 with the hip injury, Jarwin appeared in seven games and caught 10 of 15 targets for 90 yards and two scores while working as the No. 2 tight end behind Dalton Schultz. If he's able to demonstrate good health in practices Tuesday through Thursday, Jarwin could be activated from IR and suit up in Saturday's regular-season finale with the Eagles. Dallas would still have a chance to bring Jarwin back for the postseason even if he's not ready to go for Week 18.

NFL Week 17: Dallas Cowboys getting healthy as playoffs approach

Not ready this week Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy said Wednesday that Jarwin (hip) should resume on-field work next week or the week after, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Impact The timeline suggests Jarwin won't be back until the playoffs, or perhaps the final week of the regular season. Either way, Dalton Schultz is locked in as the Cowboys' top tight end, though he's in the final year of his rookie contract. Jarwin's deal run through 2023, albeit with no guarantees after this year, per OverTheCap.com.

The Dallas Cowboys are talented, but can they stay healthy enough to be title contenders?

Could return this season Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy said Wednesday that Jarwin (hip) remains a candidate to return from injured reserve in 2021, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Impact Jarwin was placed on injured reserve in early November and recently had a stint on the reserve/COVID-19 list, but he's since cleared all virus-related protocols. Though he's back at the Cowboys' facility, Jarwin has yet to be cleared to practice, though McCarthy said the tight end is "optimistic" about his chances of returning down the stretch. Since he's already missed more than the minimum three games, Jarwin is eligible to be designated for return from IR as soon as the Cowboys deem him ready to resume handling reps.

Moves back to IR Jarwin (hip) reverted to injured reserve after the Cowboys restored him from the reserve/COVID-19 list Tuesday.

Impact Jarwin's placement on the reserve/COVID-19 on Nov. 26 didn't have any bearing on his availability for the Cowboys, as he was already slated to miss time with the hip injury that resulted in his placement on IR on Nov. 6. Though Jarwin is eligible to resume practicing with the Cowboys at any point, the Cowboys have yet to provide an update on when he'll be able to do so. Sean McKeon should continue to serve as the main backup to No. 1 tight end Dalton Schultz in the meantime.

DECEMBER 7, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Moves to COVID-19 list The Cowboys placed Jarwin (hip) on the reserve/COVID-19 list Friday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.

Impact Jarwin already resided on injured reserve due to a hip injury he sustained Week 8 against the Vikings. It's unclear whether he tested positive or merely was a close contact of someone who did, but if he clears league protocols in the near future he could be available for next Thursday's contest at New Orleans, as he's missed four games while on IR.

Cowboys primed for NFC run despite clunker to end win streak

The Dallas Cowboys are in position to make a run for the top seed in the NFC

NOVEMBER 8, 2021 • Associated Press

Placed on IR The Cowboys have placed Jarwin (hip) on injured reserve, Calvin Watkins of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Impact Jarwin was already ruled out for the Cowboys' Week 9 matchup with the Broncos, and it appears his hip injury is a multi-week issue. He will now be forced to miss at least three weeks before he is eligible to return. While Dalton Schultz will remain the team's primary pass catcher at tight end, Sean McKeon and Jeremy Sprinkle could see some extra snaps as a result of this move.

NOVEMBER 6, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Won't play Sunday Jarwin (hip) will not play Sunday against the Broncos, Rob Phillips of the Cowboys' official site reports.

Impact Jarwin had yet to practice this week, so this news doesn't come as a big surprise. He picked up the injury in the Cowboys' Week 8 win over the Vikings. With Jarwin out, the newly activated Sean McKeon (ankle) and Jeremy Sprinkle will look to pick up the extra tight end snaps behind starter Dalton Schultz.

Looks unlikely to play Week 9 Jarwin (hip) won't practice Thursday, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Impact With consecutive absences to kick off Week 9 prep, Jarwin appears to be trending toward sitting out Sunday's game against the Broncos on account of the hip injury he picked up during the Cowboys' Week 8 win over the Vikings. If Jarwin is in fact sidelined this weekend, the freshly activated Sean McKeon (ankle) along with Jeremy Sprinkle would be in line for snaps at the No. 2 tight end spot behind starter Dalton Schultz.

NOVEMBER 4, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

No practice Wednesday Jarwin (hip) is not participating in Wednesday's practice, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.

Impact Jarwin injured his hip during Sunday's win over the Vikings, though details of the issue remain undisclosed. He will have two more opportunities to upgrade his practice activity ahead of Week 9's matchup against the Broncos.
