Source: Cowboys starting RT Terence Steele tears ACL, MCL

FRISCO, Texas -- The Dallas Cowboys' fears Sunday night were confirmed Monday when an MRI showed right tackle Terence Steele suffered tears to the anterior cruciate and medial collateral ligaments in his left knee, according to a source.

Steele was injured in the second quarter when a Houston Texans defender crashed into his leg while making a block. Steele started every game this season and 40 of 45 games in his career after joining the Cowboys as an undrafted free agent in 2020.

He is the second starter the Cowboys have lost for the season in as many games with cornerback Anthony Brown suffering an Achilles tear against the Indianapolis Colts in Week 13.
