The Dallas Cowboys will be without starting cornerback Anthony Brown for the rest of the season due to a torn Achilles. He suffered the injury in the team’s 54-19 win over the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday Night Football in Week Thirteen. The night of the game Cowboys owner Jerry Jones feared the worst and Monday afternoon Head Coach Mike McCarthy confirmed the torn Achilles to the media after Brown underwent an MRI. This injury is devastating to Brown, the team, and their overall depth at the position. The team considers itself a Super Bowl contender and this could hurt them moving forward.
MRI has confirmed Cowboys CB Anthony Brown will miss the remainder of season with the left Achilles injury he suffered in Sunday’s win over Colts, coach Mike McCarthy said. “Obviously just emotional to see him go through that. …He will be missed.”

This season with the Dallas Cowboys, Anthony Brown recorded 33 solo tackles, 42 total tackles, seven passes defended, and one forced fumble. He was a sixth-round pick by the team in the 2016 NFL Draft and worked his way into the starting lineup over the course of his career. This injury is devastating for both him and his team.
The loss of Anthony Brown is bigger than most want to believe. He’s a guy that should be championed more coming in as 6th round pick in ‘16. Coaches, teammates love him.

The Dallas Cowboys are currently second in the NFC East at 9-3 behind the 11-1 Philadelphia Eagles. With the regular season nearing the end, Dallas will need to make a push to win the division, but they should be a playoff team either way. We here at Def Pen Sports wish Anthony Brown a quick recovery and eventual return to the football field.
