Keanu Neal Out For Monday Night
3 years agoDallas Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy said that linebacker Keanu Neal tested positive for COVID-19 and is out for Monday night against the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 3. Neal is unvaccinated and was placed on the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Wednesday. The former safety has nine tackles (six solo) through the first two games (one start) of the season. Neal's absence hurts Dallas' linebacking depth heading into Monday night, but they also have Jaylon Smith and Leighton Vander Esch that can step up. Rookie Micah Parsons was moved to defensive end in the Week 2 win over the Los Angeles Chargers, but he may shift back to linebacker now that Neal has been ruled out.
