The Dallas Cowboys activated DaRon Bland from injured reserve on Wednesday and placed fellow cornerback Amani Oruwariye on IR. Bland has been sidelined since undergoing surgery to repair a fractured foot sustained during training camp. The Cowboys opened Bland's 21-day practice window on Oct. 9, therefore the team needed to activate him today or return him to season-ending injured reserve. Bland, 25, led the league with nine interceptions -- including an NFL-record five picks returned for touchdowns -- in 17 games (15 starts) last season. He was selected to the Pro Bowl and All-Pro teams. Bland has recorded 14 interceptions and 123 tackles since being selected by the Cowboys in the fifth round of the 2022 NFL Draft.
