  • Cowboys' Johnathan Hankins: Designated to return from IR

    Dallas designated Hankins (pectoral) to return from injured reserve Wednesday.

    As expected, Hankins will return to practice ahead of Monday's wild-card matchup after missing the final four games of the regular season with a strained pectoral. Head coach Mike McCarthy said earlier in the week that he's very optimistic Hankins, along with Leighton Vander Esch (neck) and Tyler Biadasz (ankle), will be able to suit up against Tampa Bay. If that's the case, expect Hankins to garner a rotational role along the Cowboys' defensive line.

  • Cowboys' Johnathan Hankins: Could be nearing return

    Dallas coach Mike McCarthy said Monday that Hankins (pectoral) is trending toward returning from IR ahead of the wild-card matchup against Tampa Bay, Patrik Taylor of the team's official site reports.

    Hankins has been sidelined on injured reserve since sustaining a strained pectoral during the Week 14 win again Houston. While Dallas still has not designated him to return to practice, McCarthy said that he's "very optimistic" the 30-year-old defensive lineman, linebacker Leighton Vander Esch (neck) and center Tyler Biadasz (ankle) will all be able to suit up against the Buccaneers on Monday, Jan. 16. Hankins has recorded 10 tackles over five games with the Cowboys this season, and he'll likely reprise a rotational role when available again.

  • Cowboys' Johnathan Hankins: Should be ready for playoffs

    Hankins (pectoral) is expected to return for the wild-card round of the playoffs, Jori Epstein of Yahoo Sports reports.

    Hankins' return from IR can come no sooner than the start of the playoffs, but he will be eligible to return to the 53-man roster for the Cowboys' first playoff game. The potential return of the veteran defensive tackle would certainly be good news for the team's depth across their defensive front. For now, Quinton Bohanna and Carlos Watkins will continue to handle additional snaps.
