Markquese Bell Out for Season with Shoulder Injury

Dallas Cowboys safety Markquese Bell will miss the remainder of the 2024 season due to a dislocated left shoulder sustained during Monday's game against the Houston Texans. The injury occurred while Bell was attempting a tackle on a kickoff return, leaving him in significant pain and possibly requiring surgery. Bell, who joined the Cowboys as an undrafted free agent in 2022, has been a pivotal player on special teams, appearing in 31 games over three seasons. His absence is a considerable loss for the Cowboys, who have already been plagued by injuries this season, including those of quarterback Dak Prescott and defensive end DeMarcus Lawrence. The team is struggling with a 3-7 record after their defeat to the Texans. Bell's injury adds to the Cowboys' challenges as they prepare for upcoming games against the Washington Commanders.
