MRI tests negative for Cowboys' Ware and Barber

[555666]

IRVING, Texas (AP) -- MRI tests on injured Dallas linebacker DeMarcus Ware and running back Marion Barber revealed no significant damage a day after both were injured in the Cowboys' Thanksgiving Day win over Seattle.

An MRI test on Ware's hyper-extended left knee showed no ligament damage Friday. An MRI on Barber's right fifth toe, which was dislocated, revealed no fracture.

Both players will receive treatment throughout the weekend. They will be evaluated daily next week.

Ware had three sacks, taking over the NFL lead with 15, before he sprained his left knee late in the third quarter Thursday.

Barber was hurt late in the first half, went to the locker room, came back after the break, but ran only one more time.

Thank god the MRI's were negative... It would make getting into the playoffs that much tougher if they were out.

I'm just worried about the deep passes, like the one's I seen when they played Indy.

lol exactly. They get blown out and all a sudden the excuses pop up. Evenif they play and lose, they'll still use the injuries as excuses.

You cant use injuries as an excuse against the Steelers. lol

No excuses.. Ware says his knee is fine. Marion, Idk - he has a dislocated toe.

It'd be nice to win the game, but if we don't win - I'll live...
