Goodson faces long road to recovery after knee injury
In seven games this year, Goodson has carried the ball 40 times for 163 yards. He injured his knee in his best game of the season, and now he's facing a tough road to recovery.
The Impact on the Team
With Goodson out, the Cowboys will need to rely on their other running backs, including Javonte Williams, who has been handling the lead role. The team is also dealing with P.J. Locke's concussion and Jake Ferguson's knee injury, which adds to their depth concerns at a position that was already thin.
