Dallas will be without four players against the Baltimore Ravens in Rio de Janeiro as injuries prompt changes to the roster. P.J. Locke is moving to injured reserve after sustaining a foot injury against Washington, a designation that keeps him out for at least four more weeks. Malik Hooker, who is recovering from a fractured forearm, also remains unavailable.

Linebacker DeMarvion Overshown and cornerback Cobie Durant were ruled out with hamstring injuries. Durant had been a starter before getting hurt in Dallas’ Week 2 win over Washington.

Barron is now part of Dallas’ 53-player roster after previously joining the active lineup from the practice squad for one game. The move adds linebacker depth with Overshown sidelined. Dallas has also brought up cornerback Reddy Steward for the Ravens matchup.

Steward played substantial defensive snaps in 2025 as a nickel cornerback and occasionally played safety. He gives the team another option alongside safeties Jalen Thompson, Caleb Downs, Markquese Bell and Alijah Clark. Linebackers Jaishawn Barham and Dee Winters, who were injured against Washington, finished that game.

The Dallas Cowboys’ official website reported the updates.
