Suffers injury on Thanksgiving Martin (calf) was ruled out during the first half of Thursday's game against Washington, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Impact Martin was joined by Cameron Erving (knee) on the sideline Thursday, as both starting tackles suffered injuries on Dallas' opening offensive drive of the contest. The development leaves Dallas completely deteriorated along the offensive line for the time being, with Tyron Smith (neck) and La'el Collins (hip) remaining on injured reserve after combining for 28 starts in 2019. No indication has been made yet as to whether Martin's injury will keep him out for Week 13 and beyond, but the fact that he was promptly ruled out upon his departure is not encouraging.

Cowboys QB Dalton out vs Eagles, rookie set for 1st start
The Dallas Cowboys have declared quarterback Andy Dalton out for their game in Philadelphia because of a concussion, clearing the way for rookie Ben DiNucci’s first startOCTOBER 31, 2020 • Associated Press
Cleared for Week 8 Martin has cleared the league's concussion protocol and will play Sunday against the Eagles, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.
Impact Martin was a full participant all week in practice and will be a critical addition to an offensive line that's already missing its two starting tackles and the starting center. The veteran guard will be responsible for protecting rookie seventh-round pick Ben DiNucci in his first NFL start.

Ruled out, as expected Martin (concussion) is ruled out for Sunday's game against Washington, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.
Impact In addition to the All-Pro right guard's absence, Dallas' offensive line will be missing tackles Tyron Smith (neck) and La'el Collins (hip), both of whom are out for the year, in addition to center Joe Looney (knee). Connor McGovern will make his first career start in Martin's stead, and replacement tackle Brandon Knight (knee) is also ruled out. The Cowboys could have substantial difficulty stopping Washington's pass rush, led by Chase Young.

Unlikely for Sunday Coach Mike McCarthy said Friday that he doesn't expect Martin (concussion) to suit up against Washington on Sunday, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News Reports.
Impact If Martin is indeed forced to miss Sunday's contest while working his way through the concussion protocol, Connor McGovern will be in line to draw the first start of his professional career. The Cowboys are already missing starting tackles Tyron Smith (neck) and La'el Collins (hip) for the year, while center Joe Looney (knee) resides on short-term IR.

Still in concussion protocol Coach Mike McCarthy said Thursday that Martin is still working through the league's five-step concussion protocol, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Impact Martin will need to fully clear the concussion protocol before retaking the field, which makes his status for Sunday's game in Washington uncertain. The Cowboys' offensive line is already missing both starting tackles for the season, so the team can hardy afford for Martin to miss any more time.
