Eric Kendricks

NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports Cowboys LB Erick Kendricks (shoulder) is expected to play in Week 9 against the Falcons.

Kendricks missed Week 6 with the shoulder injury plus a calf issue. He returned after Dallas’s Week 7 bye but was listed as questionable versus Atlanta. Kendricks is clearly not fully healthy, but the veteran should continue to gut it out through the shoulder injury. He has two sacks, two TFLs, and an interception in six games this year. Per Rapoport, cornerback Trevon Diggs remains a game-time call.
