49ers-Cowboys: Final Injury Report

by Fooch on Nov 21, 2008 5:01 PM PST in News

The 49ers have posted their final injury report for Sunday and there's an interesting change to note out.

San Francisco 49ers
Probable: LB Patrick Willis (Hip), CB Tarell Brown (Neck), RB Michael Robinson (Stinger), FS Mark Roman (Groin), TE Delanie Walker (Shoulder), OT Barry Sims (Ankle)

Out: FS Dashon Goldson (Knee), WR Arnaz Battle (Foot), WR Josh Morgan (groin)

Dallas Cowboys
Probable: WR Isaiah Stanback (Shoulder), TE Jason Witten (Ribs), QB Tony Romo (Right Finger), LB Bobby Carpenter (Groin)

Questionable: CB Terence Newman (Groin), LB Justin Rogers (Back)

Out: WR Miles Austin (Knee), RB Felix Jones (Hamstring)

The biggest change is the addition of Terence Newman. Newman missed five weeks with a groin injury, but did manage to play last week at Washington snatching a big interception. Newman practiced Wednesday and yesterday but was a DNP today. If the Cowboys are a little cocky, maybe they'll think it's a game they should win so why not rest Newman. Anything to improve the matchup for Hill, right?

I'll throw up a more explanatory post next week, but the linked graphic below will take you to the central SB Nation hub for all things NFL. The network also has a similar hub for the race for the BCS Title. Enjoy.
