OXNARD, Calif. -- Before the Dallas Cowboys even held their first padded practice of training camp, they suffered a blow to their defense with pass rusher Sam Williams suffering a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee, a source told ESPN on Sunday.

The injury will end Williams' season before it could really begin.

Williams was injured during the special teams' portion of practice after he was engaged in a blocking drill. He remained down for several minutes as he was attended to by the Cowboys' medical staff.
