HOUSTON – Cowboys kicker Martin Gramatica is expected to miss Thursday's preseason finale at Minnesota with a strained right hamstring.
More Cowboys
Gramatica injured his kicking leg on a kickoff in the third quarter of Saturday's loss to Houston. Gramatica said after the game he felt something weird in his leg after the play.
He picked a bad time to get hurt because he's in a position battle with rookie Nick Folk. The Cowboys have to cut 10 players from their 85-man roster by Tuesday. If Gramatica is released, the team will reach an injury settlement with him.
Gramatica received a $200,000 signing bonus in the off-season. If he's on the opening day roster, his $800,000 base salary is guaranteed.
