Every call we wrote for him this week, earliest first, as written.

In short

LT Overton is in the rotation at left defensive end for DAL — 36% of the snaps in his best week of 6. He has a foot injury. This week he did not practise. His team has listed him Questionable. We called him SIT in week 6 and he played.

The reader concurs · grade C · superseded

P1 is the Friday (16 Oct) club report for this exact game and matches the dossier: Overton is listed questionable with a foot injury, so he is neither ruled out nor cleared (P1: 'listed four as questionable: ... defensive tackle L.T. Overton (foot)'). The same report shows the club used its other categories deliberately — ruling out Durant and Shelton, and naming players with no game status as available — so 'questionable' plus a Friday DNP is a genuine coin-flip that carries no written contradiction of a SIT call (P1: 'The Cowboys ruled out cornerback Cobie Durant (hamstring) and tackle Drew Shelton (hamstring)'). Nothing in the passages speaks to Wednesday/Thursday participation, coach commentary, or the inactive list, so I have no prose basis to overturn the call and concur while keeping the grade low. It would need to know: Cowboys Wednesday (14 Oct) and Thursday (15 Oct) practice participation for L.T. Overton — whether the Friday DNP was the whole week or a single rest day; Any Schottenheimer or Cowboys beat report this week on the severity of Overton's foot or an expectation he plays Sunday 18 Oct; The Sunday 18 Oct Cowboys inactive list, or a Saturday practice-squad elevation at defensive tackle; Whether other interior defensive tackles (e.g., Osa Odighizuwa, Kenny Clark, Solomon Thomas) are out or questionable, which would raise the pressure to dress Overton — Our call has since changed from SIT to PLAY. This reading was written against the earlier one and is kept as it was; it is not an argument about the call shown above.

His team's word: Questionable

This is the TEAM'S OWN ANNOUNCEMENT, not a reading of ours. His team filed him on the injury report and we are restating it so the record is complete. There is nothing early about repeating an announcement — what we say ahead of one is on the week's page. Source: his team's published inactive list, on the day.
