No Newman, so Cowboys need new man at corner

By Chris Cluff on August 23, 2007 09:40 PM

Dallas cornerback Terence Newman will miss the rest of the preseason because of a heel injury that is worse than the Cowboys thought it was. Newman is expected back in time for the Cowboy's season opener against the New York Giants on Sept. 9. Veteran Aaron Glenn will start in Newman's place while he is out.

Commentary: If the injury does not get better and Newman misses regular-season games, this would be a blow to a Dallas defense that figures to be one of the league's better units again.
