IRVING, Tex. - Enjoying a resurgent campaign that includes their first division championship since 2009, the Dallas Cowboys will host the Detroit Lions on Jan. 4 in an NFC Wild Card contest.
Though the high spirits may have been dealt a heavy blow on the injury side.
Defensive tackle Henry Melton has a bruised bone in his right knee, acquired in the Cowboys' 44-17 victory over the Washington Redskins on Sunday, and is likely to miss "a few weeks," according to his agent, Jordan Woy.
A fourth-round pick to the Bears in 2009, Melton leads the Cowboys with five sacks and has played in every game this season. He signed a one-year deal with Dallas that includes a three-year option.
