Donovan Wilson - Page 2 - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Nursing neck injury Wilson (neck) was a limited participant in Monday's walkthrough practice, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.

Impact Wilson may have tweaked his neck during the Cowboys' 24-21 overtime win over the Eagles on Sunday, when he played every single defensive snap and finished with five solo tackles and a pass defense. His limited participation in Monday's walkthrough indicates that the injury isn't considered a serious one, and he'll have two more opportunities to increase his practice participation and avoid an injury designation heading into Thursday's game against the Chiefs.

Practices in full Wilson (elbow) was a full participant in practice Thursday, Clarence Hill Jr. of AllDLLS.com reports.

Still nursing elbow injury Wilson (elbow) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.

Impact Wilson missed two games due to an elbow injury, but he was cleared to play against the Raiders on Monday, when he logged three tackles (two solo) while playing 48 of 60 defensive snaps (80 percent). His limited practice participation Wednesday could just be an effort from the Cowboys to reduce the risk of aggravating the injury, and he'll have two more opportunities to increase his practice participation and avoid an injury tag for Sunday's NFC East clash against the Eagles.

Cleared to play Week 11 Wilson (elbow/shoulder) does not carry an injury designation into Monday's game against Las Vegas, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.

Impact Wilson ended Week 11 prep with a full practice Saturday, and he has been cleared to return from a two-game absence due to an elbow injury. The Cowboys could also be getting Malik Hooker (toe) back from injured reserve, further strengthening the team's secondary for MNF.

Limited in practice Thursday Wilson (elbow) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Nick Harris of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.

Impact Wilson did not play in the Cowboys Week 8 loss to the Broncos nor the Week 9 loss to the Cardinals due to an elbow injury he sustained against the Commanders in Week 7. After resting up during the Cowboys' bye, the starting strong safety returned for Thursday's practice in a limited capacity and looks to be trending up. If the 30-year-old veteran can string together two more practices Friday and Saturday he has a chance to suit up for his first game since Week 7.

Ruled out for Week 8 Wilson (elbow) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Broncos, Patrik Walker of the Cowboys' official site reports.

Impact Wilson played through the elbow issue last Sunday against Washington after he was initially injured in Week 6, so it's fair to wonder if he suffered setback. Alijah Clark will likely see increased reps on defense for Dallas.

Wilson has 35 tackles (20 solo) and three pass defenses (two interceptions) through the first six games of the regular season.

Impact Wilson played 63 defensive snaps and recorded his second interception of the season during the Cowboys' Week 6 loss to the Panthers, but he looks to have picked up an elbow injury in the process. He would likely avoid an injury designation heading into Sunday's game against the Commanders with a full practice over the next two days.

Impact Wilson snagged his second pick of the campaign Sunday, matching his career-high total from both 2020 and 2023. The 30-year-old will look to keep producing in the team's Week 7 matchup versus the Commanders.

OCTOBER 15, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Another pick in Sunday's loss Wilson recorded six tackles (five solo) and an interception in Sunday's 30-27 loss to the Panthers.

Impact The pick was Wilson's second in the last five games, a stretch in which he's made a splash in IDP formats with 34 tackles as well. With the Dallas defense flailing this season and unable to get off the field most of the time, there should be plenty of opportunities for the veteran safety to continue piling up stats.

Managing elbow injury Wilson did not practice Wednesday due to an elbow injury, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.

Impact Wilson was on the field for 77 of 82 defensive snaps (93.9 percent) during the Cowboys' Week 5 win over the Jets, finishing with eight tackles (three solo). The 2019 sixth-rounder appears to have sustained an elbow injury in the process, and he'll have to practice in at least a limited capacity over the next two days in order to have a chance at playing against the Panthers on Sunday. Juanyeh Thomas is working through an ankle injury, so Alijah Clark and Markquese Bell could see increased snaps at safety if Wilson or Thomas are unable to play against Carolina.

Nice day in win Wilson recorded eight tackles (three solo) during Sunday's 37-22 win against the Jets.

Impact Wilson collected at least six tackles for the fourth consecutive contest in Week 5, thanks in part to being on the field for 69 defensive snaps. He'll be looking to keep that streak going in a Week 6 contest against Carolina.
