TANK ROLLING TO TEXAS?
from profootballtalk.com
Cowboys defensive tackle Jason Ferguson suffered a torn biceps tendon on Sunday night against the Giants. Per the Cowboys' official web site, Ferguson is expected to miss the rest of the season.
Ferguson's absence could (key word: could) mean that the Cowboys will take a look at Tank Johnson, who was cut in the offseason by the Bears after an arrest in Arizona on suspicion of DUI. The only drawback is that Johnson must first serve an eight-game suspension after being signed; thus, he wouldn't be available until the tenth game of the season.
There was some talk after Johnson was cut that the Cowboys might be interested, even though Dallas runs a 3-4 defense and Johnson's NFL experience has come exclusively in the 4-3.
For now, Jay Ratliff will handle the job in Ferguson's place.
