FRISCO, Texas -- If Tyron Smith can’t play Sunday against the Philadelphia Eagles, then it looks like the Dallas Cowboys are ready to go with Byron Bell as their left tackle.

In last week’s loss to the Atlanta Falcons, Chaz Green took over for Smith and allowed four of the eight sacks the Cowboys allowed. Bell gave up two on the Cowboys’ final two drives.

The last time Bell started a game at left tackle came in Week 17 in 2015 with the Tennessee Titans when he took over for Taylor Lewan.
