MacMahon: Martellus Bennett might not play Sunday
Martellus Bennett might not play Sunday

SAN ANTONIO – The Cowboys are considering not playing tight end Martellus Bennett in Sunday’s Hall of Fame Game.
Bennett hasn’t missed a practice since coming off the nonfootball injury list July 30, but his ankle could benefit from having the weekend off.
Bennett didn’t participate in the first six days of training camp due to a sprained ankle suffered during an unsupervised workout at Valley Ranch. He said he suffered the injury while working on catching jump balls.
Although Bennett performed well after being cleared to practice, his ankle isn’t completely healthy. He is having problems planting and cutting. If he doesn’t play Sunday, he can essentially get four consecutive days off since today’s practice was walkthrough. The Cowboys’ two practices next week between preseason games also won’t be strenuous workouts.
