An MRI revealed that Dallas Cowboys left tackle Tyler Guyton did not tear his ACL in practice on Monday.

Guyton, 24, avoided the season-ending injury but will miss four to six weeks with a bone fracture in his right knee.

He was injured when his leg got rolled up on during a padded practice at training camp in Oxnard, Calif.


A first-round draft pick (29th overall) by Dallas in 2024, Guyton started 11 of his 15 games as a rookie last season.

The recovery timeline gives Guyton a chance to be ready for the Sept. 4 season opener at Philadelphia.

Getting reps in his place will be a group of tackles on the roster, including Hakeem Adeniji, Asim Richards, Matt Waletzko and sixth-round rookie Ajani Cornelius.
