NFL: Cowboys CB Newman out again with strained groin

Associated Press

OXNARD, Calif. — Dallas Cowboys cornerback Terence Newman missed practice again today because of a strained groin.

Newman was on the field, but not in uniform for the team's only workout.

Newman was injured during the morning practice Monday when he became tangled up with a receiver during a play and his leg twisted awkwardly. He didn't participate in the second practice Monday.

Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said team trainers "don't seem to be too excited about it as far as the seriousness" of the injury.

Newman went to his first Pro Bowl last season.

Dallas linebacker Justin Rogers, who sat out Monday due to dehydration sustained when he practiced despite a virus the previous day, returned to the field today.
