Cowboys tight end Martellus Bennett won't play Sunday against San Diego because of concussion-related symptoms.

Bennett didn't mention any problems during last weekend's loss to the New York Giants, but he hasn't practiced all week after saying he was experiencing headaches and fogginess.

In his second season out of Texas A&M, Bennett is sixth on the team with 15 catches for 159 yards. Dallas uses two tight ends on most players. Rookie John Phillips is his likely replacement.
