Jason Garrett Provides Updates on Byron Jones, Zack Martin, Tyron Smith and Taco Charlton

While the Ezekiel Elliott contract drama has occupied the minds of most Cowboys fans throughout the preseason, the team may have some other things to worry about.

Jason Garrett issued an injury update on a handful of players, and revealed that Tyron Smith and Zack Martin are both still dealing with back injuries. Taco Charlton is also sidelined with an ankle ailment.

There was some positive news in the update, however, as Jones reported that Byron Jones has been activated from the PUP list.

Dallas' defense will soon be getting back its All-Pro cornerback from the PUP list, which would be great news ahead of the regular season. Jones underwent offseason hip surgery but is expected to be on the field in Week 1.

The 2015 first-round draft pick has not missed a game in his career and is regarded as one of the best corner's in the NFL.

The once dominant Cowboy's offensive line is currently littered with nagging injuries. Martin dealt with knee issues throughout much of last season and Smith has missed time because of his back in past seasons.

The ankle injury to Charlton does not seem too serious but still held him out of practice on Monday. Charlton suffered the injury in Saturday's game against Houston.

Dallas has high hoped for the 2019 campaign. They will need to remain healthy for to be serious Super Bowl contenders, especially if Ezekiel Elliott extends his holdout into the season.
