The Dallas Cowboys are already unlikely to have Miles Austin available for Sunday’s match up against the Denver Broncos, but it looks like one of his replacements could also be out of action. On the most recent injury report, Cowboys receiver Dwayne Harris is officially listed as questionable.

If Austin is out like many anticipate he will be, Harris would have been called on to fill in the slot role as rookie Terrance Williams fills in the No. 2 spot.

It’s been a nagging hip injury that limited Harris on Thursday and Friday and it would be a huge blow to the offense if he was unable to take the field against Denver along with Austin. The good news is that there is still some hope he will play — the same can’t be said for Austin.

Tony Romo and company will need to light up the scoreboard and find a way to rack up the points and keep pace with Peyton Manning and the Broncos offense, but that becomes much harder to do once you are down two of your top four targets.
