OXNARD, Calif. (AP) Orlando Scandrick's season-ending knee injury was a flashback for Dallas coach Jason Garrett to losing linebacker Sean Lee during the offseason a year earlier.

There is one difference, though. This time, the Cowboys think they have the cornerbacks to absorb the blow.

''With this position, we're less likely to go outside and look for Orlando Scandrick's replacement,'' Garrett said Wednesday, a day after Scandrick tore the anterior cruciate ligament and medial collateral ligament in his right knee in practice at training camp.
