Stephon Gilmore Doesn't Practice Wednesday

Dallas Cowboys cornerback Stephon Gilmore (shoulder) was the only player on the team's 53-man roster that didn't take part in practice on Wednesday due to injury. Even though Gilmore isn't expected to practice all week after injuring his shoulder in the Week 18 regular season finale against the Washington Commanders, head coach Mike McCarthy expects him to play in Sunday's wild-card playoff game against the Green Bay Packers. The 33-year-old could still enter Sunday's game with a questionable tag and could be less effective if he does actually suit up. The five-time Pro Bowler is a huge part of Dallas' strong defense, so his status is worth watching this weekend. In 17 starts in his first year for the Cowboys, Gilmore had a career-high 68 tackles (54 solo), two interceptions, 13 passes defensed and a forced fumble.
