DeMarvion Overshown injury update: Cowboys LB exits with knee injury vs Bengals

Dallas Cowboys linebacker DeMarvion Overshown suffered a knee injury in the fourth quarter of the Cowboys' "Monday Night Football" loss to the Cincinnati Bengals.

Overshown, who missed the entirety of his rookie season last year after tearing his ACL in a preseason game, needed the help of two Cowboys trainers to walk off of the field. He immediately headed to the locker room.

Within minutes of the injury, Dallas declared the linebacker out for the remainder of the game.

Overshown had tallied six tackles and a pass defensed prior to the injury in what had been a continuation of a breakout second season.
