KaVontae Turpin likely out for Cowboys in Week 7 matchup
Summary

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver and kick returner KaVontae Turpin is expected to miss Week 7 against the Philadelphia Eagles due to a rib injury sustained during the opening kickoff in Week 6 against the Green Bay Packers. In Turpin's absence, running back Tyler Goodson took over kick-return duties, while wide receiver Jonathan Mingo handled punt returns. The Cowboys will look to adjust their special teams strategy as they face a division rival.
