The Dallas Cowboys can’t afford another injury along their defensive line. They’re already incredibly depleted up front. In the first half of the Cowboys game against the Washington Redskins, DeMarcus Ware was going one on one with the Redskins left tackle when he pulled up mid-play.
He abandoned the play and pulled up and was sort of hopping, trying to stay off his right leg. ESPN Dallas said it was an injury to his right quad.
From ESPN Dallas:
"Cowboys defensive end DeMarcus Ware exited Sunday’s game against the Washington Redskins due to a right quad injury.Ware’s return was announced as questionable."
It is unknown whether Ware will return to the game at this point. It adds to a long list of injuries up front for the Cowboys. They’ve lost defensive end Anthony Spencer and Tyrone Crawford for the season. Defensive tackle Jay Ratliff has been injured as well.
This is incredibly bad news for the Cowboys.
DeMarcus Ware is headed to the locker room with an athletic trainer.

[UPDATE]: Ware out for the remainder of the game.
According to Kristi Scales on @1053TheFan ... Demarcus Ware is back on the bench wearing shorts, sneakers and cap; providing moral support
