Cowboys believe DeMarvion Overshown's knee injury is serious

ARLINGTON, Texas -- The Dallas Cowboys fear linebacker DeMarvion Overshown suffered a major injury to his right knee in the fourth quarter of Monday night's 27-20 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals.

Coach Mike McCarthy said, "it's of a serious nature," and, "it's not good," with a source saying the belief is Overshown suffered more than just a tear of the anterior cruciate ligament with 12:49 left in the game. He will undergo more testing Tuesday to confirm the severity of the injury.

Overshown's right leg took the brunt of a pile on a 2-yard run by Chase Brown in the fourth quarter.
