IRVING, Texas – Reinforcements have arrived for a depleted Cowboys defense. Several players who have been out or limited with injuries returned to practice Wednesday, including cornerback Morris Claiborne, defensive end DeMarcus Ware, defensive tackle Jason Hatcher and safety J.J. Wilcox.

The only defensive starters who did not practice were linebackers Sean Lee and Justin Durant, who both suffered hamstring injuries in the last game.

Claiborne, Ware and Hatcher were listed as limited participants in Wednesday's official practice report while Wilcox was a full participant. All are expected to play Sunday at the Giants.

The only offensive players listed on the practice report were receivers Miles Austin (hamstring) and Dez Bryant (back), but both went through a full practice.
