Cowboys: Henry sidelined by ankle sprain

Hampered by a sprained ankle, cornerback Anthony Henry will be sidelined Monday when the Dallas Cowboys (4-0) play at Buffalo (1-3), coach Wade Phillips said Friday.

It will be the first game Henry has missed since he sat out the next-to-last game in 2005 with a groin injury.

Terence Newman, who missed the first two games with a foot injury and played last week with a sore knee, will replace Henry in the starting lineup.

"Newman seems to be a lot better," Phillips said. "He had a real good practice (Friday). I feel a lot better about him going into the game."

Other players listed out for Dallas are safety Courtney Brown (biceps) and receiver Terry Glenn (knee). Safety Keith Davis (shoulder) is questionable, and fullback Oliver Hoyte (neck) is doubtful.
