Plenty of people have been critical of the Cowboys

Beasley is welcoming his new teammate with open arms, however.Beasley said he’s “glad we did something to add to us” and thinks that Cooper will make the offense more dangerous when it returns to the field in Week Nine. Beasley said Cooper’s addition should help running back Ezekiel Elliott, although he’s less sure about what it will mean for him as an individual.“I don’t know, we will find out. Hopefully, a lot ,” Beasley said, via the Fort Worth Star-Telegram. “I have been all right without it so … If it’s any easier for me, the defense is going to be in trouble.”Beasley’s set for free agency after this year, so any boost he gets from Cooper’s presence could help him come the offseason as well. The Dallas Cowboys 28-14 loss to the Tennessee Titans was bad enough. With a real opportunity to get into the playoff race on a serious basis, the Cowboys completely botched it. So the loss was bad enough, but it also came with some injuries.Most everyone saw Sean Lee pull up lame during the game. Replays showed Lee immediately reaching back and grabbing the rear of his leg , the hamstring region. As you may have guessed, Lee will be out for some stretch of time.We’ve discussed many times how this isn’t the end of the world like it was in past years. Jaylon Smith and Leighton Vander Esch have showed they can handle the positions with Damien Wilson acting as the third linebacker in base defense situations.More unnoticed from the game was an injury to rookie starting guard Connor Williams. It’s a knee injury and it will keep him out of practice at the start of this week, at the minimum. If Williams is unable to go, the guess would be that free agent signee Xavier Su’a-Filo would get the call. He was signed at toward the beginning of September. Su’a-Filo has plenty of starting experience, starting over 40 games for the Houston Texans.
