The Cowboys are getting close to kickoff for their Wild Card game in Tampa Bay against Tom Brady and the Buccaneers. Exactly one year from their last playoff game, a crushing loss to the 49ers, Dallas will try and atone for that early exit. Now we know who won’t be suiting up for this one.
There are several surprising names on the inactives list for Dallas. The biggest surprise comes at cornerback, where both Trayvon Mullen and Nahshon Wright are inactive. Both played a significant amount of snaps for Dallas in their final two games of the regular season, but the Cowboys are expected to play Xavier Rhodes, who was called up from the practice squad for his first game since joining the team off waivers.
