Sources: Cowboys' Hanna opts for knee surgery

OXNARD, Calif. - Dallas Cowboys tight end James Hanna will have knee surgery that puts his availability for the Sept. 11 season opener against the New York Giants in jeopardy, according to multiple sources.

Hanna was placed on the physically unable to perform list at the start of training camp with a bone bruise. He has sought multiple opinions and has opted for the surgery.

Because the Cowboys put Hanna on the active/PUP list when camp began he is eligible to be placed on the reserve/PUP list when the final cuts are made.
