Sources are reporting that left guard La’el Collins will need surgery for his toe injury and this will likely sideline him for the rest of 2016. After hurting his toe in the Chicago game last week, Collins went for a second opinion and hoped that rest might allow him to recover enough to play this year. That doesn’t appear to be the case.
Collins suffered a ligament tear in his toe, an injury that a few Cowboys have suffered through in recent seasons. Sean Lee had it in 2012 and Terrell McClain had his season ended last year with the same problem.
