Dallas Cowboys left tackle Tyron Smith (ankle) is questionable to return for the remainder of the Sunday night game against the Minnesota Vikings in Week 8.

Minnesota Vikings defensive end Danielle Hunter (shoulder) is questionable to return to the Sunday night game against the Dallas Cowboys with a shoulder injury.
