OL Brandon Knight says he's taking a break from football

Former Dallas Cowboys offensive lineman Brandon Knight says he’s taking a break from football to address his mental health

OCTOBER 22, 2021 • Associated Press

Claimed off waivers Knight was claimed off waivers by the Ravens via the Cowboys, Field Yates of ESPN reports.

Impact Knight had a regular starting role for the Cowboys last season, but he has been serving as a swing tackle in 2021. The Ravens, who have multiple injuries to their line, will hope at the very least that Knight can provide solid depth behind Alejandro Villanueva and Ronnie Stanley (ankle).

No longer on injury report Knight (illness) is off the Cowboys' injury report Wednesday, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.

Impact Knight has finally been taken off the Cowboys' injury report after he exited Sunday's game against the Panthers early with an illness. The offensive tackle has played a minimal depth role for Dallas' offensive line this season, playing in only three offensive snaps. Knight is expected to be available against the Giants on Sunday.

Dealing with non-COVID illness Knight (illness) is questionable to return to Sunday's contest against the Panthers, Calvin Watkins of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Impact Knight is dealing with a non-COVID illness that will likely keep him sidelined for the remainder of the contest. The 24-year-old has only played three offensive snaps for the Cowboys this season, so his absence shouldn't affect their offensive line rotations.

Placed on COVID list Knight has been placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list, Jonny Auping of the Cowboys' official site reports.

Impact Per the report, Knight's placement on the list stems from a close contact with a COVID-19 case. The tackle's status for Thursday's season opener against Tampa Bay is unclear, while guard Zack Martin tested positive for COVID and is therefore in line to miss Week 1 action.

Back from injured reserve Knight (knee) was activated from injured reserve Saturday, Rob Phillips of the Cowboys' official site reports.

Impact The 23-year-old has been on injured reserve for the past month after knee surgery, but he's back on the active roster for Week 11. Knight should reclaim the starting role at right tackle for Dallas.

Returns to practice Wednesday Knight (knee) practiced Wednesday, indicating the beginning of his 21-day window to be activated from IR.

Impact Knight's eligible to return as soon as Sunday's game versus the Vikings, and if he's able to play, he'll likely immediately start at tackle.

Heads to IR The Cowboys placed Knight (knee) on injured reserve Saturday, David Helman of the Cowboys' official site reports.

Impact Knight underwent knee surgery Tuesday and will be required to miss at least three games due to his placement on IR. With Tyron Smith (neck) also on IR, the Cowboys activated Cameron Erving (knee) from IR to start at left tackle against a menacing Washington pass rush. Knight is eligible to return Week 11 against the Vikings.

Out after knee surgery Knight has been ruled out for Sunday's game at Washington after undergoing knee surgery Tuesday, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Impact The specifics of the injury/surgery remain unclear, but according to Jon Machota of The Athletic, the 23-year-old will be sidelined for at least a couple weeks. It's yet another blow for the Cowboys' offensive line, which is already without starters Tyron Smith (neck) and La'el Collins (hip). Zack Martin's status is also in doubt due to a concussion. Assuming he's activated off injured reserve this week, Cameron Erving (knee) likely will slot in at left tackle during Knight's absence.
