Officially questionable for Week 8
Guyton (lower body) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Broncos, Patrik Walker of the Cowboys' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Guyton popped up on Thursday's injury report due to a lower-body and was limited in the final two practices of the week, putting his status for Sunday's game in question. Nathan Thomas would likely start at left tackle if Guyton is not cleared to play Week 8.
Oct 23, 2025
Added to injury report
Guyton (lower body) was a limited participant at practice Thursday, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.
ANALYSIS
Guyton was added to the injury report with an apparent lower-body injury after he opened the week a full participant Wednesday. The offensive lineman will have one more chance to log a full practice Friday before the team takes on the Broncos in Week 8.

Good to go for Week 6
Guyton (concussion) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Panthers, Clarence Hill Jr. of AllDLLS.com reports.

Full practice Thursday
Guyton (concussion) was a full participant at practice Thursday, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.
ANALYSIS
Guyton was able to increase his participation to log a full practice Thursday after he was limited to open the week Wednesday. It's unclear if the offensive lineman has cleared concussion protocol, but he'll look to record another full practice Friday and play Sunday in Carolina.
Oct 8, 2025
Still recovering from concussion
Guyton (concussion) was a limited participant at practice Wednesday, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Guyton was forced to sit out in Week 5 against the Jets because of the concussion he sustained in Week 4 versus the Packers, but his activity Wednesday is a positive sign for his potential availability in Week 6. He'll have two more days to exit concussion protocol before the Cowboys release their last practice report of the week Friday.
Oct 3, 2025
Ruled out for Week 5
Guyton (concussion) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Jets, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Guyton entered concussion protocol following the Cowboys' 40-40 tie to the Packers this past Sunday. Nate Thomas will likely start at left tackle against the Jets in Guyton's absence. Week 6 against the Panthers on Sunday, Oct. 12 will be Guyton's next opportunity to play.
Oct 1, 2025
DNP to begin week
Guyton (concussion) did not practice Wednesday, Nick Harris of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.
ANALYSIS
Guyton suffered a concussion in Sunday night's tie with the Packers, so his non-participation to begin the week comes as no surprise. He'll have to progress through the league's concussion protocol to suit up for Sunday's game against the Jets.
Sep 29, 2025
Sustains concussion
Guyton sustained a concussion in Sunday's 40-40 tie against the Packers, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
The 2024 first-round pick from Oklahoma must clear concussion protocol in order to suit up for Dallas' Week 5 matchup against the Jets. If Guyton is unable to clear protocol, Nate Thomas will likely step in and serve as the Cowboys' starting left tackle.
Sep 28, 2025
Being evaluated for concussion
Guyton (head) is being evaluated for a concussion in Sunday night's contest against the Packers, Calvin Watkins of The Dallas Morning News reports.
ANALYSIS
Guyton took a blow to the head in the second half versus Green Bay, and his status for the rest of the contest is uncertain. Nate Thomas has taken over at left tackle in his place.
Sep 1, 2025
Full practice Monday
Guyton (knee) was a full participant at the Cowboys' practice Monday, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Guyton has been dealing with a bone fracture in his right knee since late July, but he now appears to be back to full strength. The 24-year-old will operate as the Cowboys' starting left tackle in Thursday's regular-season opener in Philadelphia.
Aug 23, 2025
Could return to practice
Head coach Brian Schottenheimer said Saturday that Guyton (knee) is trending towards doing some work at practice in the coming week, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Whether Guyton is limited to work on the sidelines or can participate in a larger capacity remains to be seen, but it seems to be a step in the right direction for Guyton, who is dealing with a bone fracture in his right knee. His practice participation over the next two weeks will be worth closely monitoring, as that will provide an indication for his availability for Week 1 against the Eagles on Thursday, Sept. 4. Nathan Thomas appears to be the top candidate to start at left tackle should Guyton not be cleared to play, though Asim Richards is also in consideration for a starting role.
Aug 19, 2025
Believes he'll be ready for Week 1
Guyton (knee) is optimistic that he'll be ready to play in the Cowboys' season opener against the Eagles, Calvin Watkins of the Dallas Morning News reports.
ANALYSIS
The left tackle suffered a knee injury in late July that was initially feared to be a torn ACL, but instead turned out to be a bone fracture instead, with only a sprain to his ligament. Guyton's status for Week 1 remains up in the air, but he thinks he'd put in enough work in camp before getting hurt to be ready to play if he gets medical clearance. "I want to play in every game but again I'm going to leave that up to [the training staff]," he said Monday. If Guyton is held out against Philadelphia, Nathan Thomas -- a 2024 seventh-round pick who has yet to play a snap in an NFL game -- is expected to be the player protecting Dak Prescott's blind side.
Aug 14, 2025
Working out on sidelines
Guyton (knee) was working with resistance bands on the sidelines during Wednesday's practice, Todd Archer of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
The Cowboys' starting left tackle went down with a bone fracture in his right knee during practice at the end of July, but the team is holding out hope he'll be recovered in time to play against the Eagles in Week 1. While he's been out of action, 2024 seventh-round pick Nathan Thomas, who missed his entire rookie season with a knee injury of his own, has seen the bulk of first-team reps at left tackle and would likely get the start in the opener if Guyton isn't ready.
Aug 5, 2025
Could play in opener
Guyton (knee) could be ready for the team's Week 1 matchup versus the Eagles, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Guyton sustained a sprain and bone fracture in his right knee in late July but could still have a chance to be ready for the team's season opener on Sept. 4. If he ends up being unable to play however, Nathan Thomas will likely serve as the team's starting left tackle versus Philadelphia.
Jul 28, 2025
Out several weeks with knee injury
Guyton is dealing with a bone fracture in his right knee as well as a sprain, but his ACL is intact and he won't require surgery, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Though Guyton's 4-to-6 week timeline for a return makes him iffy for Week 1, this is much better news than what was originally feared, as early reports indicated the offensive lineman was being looked at for a torn ACL, per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. An MRI revealed a tough but less serious diagnosis, and Guyton's bone fracture is expected to heal without a need for surgery. The injury will very likely still keep him out of action for most or all of the preseason slate, and it's not certain that he will be recovered in time for Week 1 of the campaign. If Guyton misses any regular-season games, Asim Richards could be asked to step in at left tackle.

Able to suit up for MNF
Guyton (ankle/knee) is active for Monday's Week 14 battle against the Bengals, Nick Harris of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.
ANALYSIS
Guyton suffered a high-ankle sprain against the Giants on Thanksgiving and didn't practice at all this week, but he's going to be able to play Monday regardless. The rookie offensive tackle has started in each of the 10 games he's suited up for this season, and he'll presumably be among Dallas' starters Monday as well.
Dec 7, 2024
Deemed questionable despite DNPs
Guyton (ankle/knee) is questionable to play in Monday's Week 14 battle against the Bengals, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.
ANALYSIS
Thomas is dealing with a high-ankle sprain and didn't practice at all this week, but Dallas isn't ruling him out for Monday Night Football. The injury occurred on Thanksgiving Day against the Giants, so the length of time between that matchup and Monday's may be the reason why he has a chance of suiting up against Cincinnati. If Guyton can't play Monday, Chuma Edoga could start at left tackle in his place.
Nov 28, 2024
Suffers high-ankle sprain
Guyton suffered a high-ankle sprain during the Cowboys' 27-20 win over the Giants on Thursday, Calvin Watkins of The Dallas Morning News reports.
ANALYSIS
Guyton sprained his ankle in the first quarter of Thursday's game, and his timetable for a return is not yet known. Chuma Edoga is the top candidate to take Guyton's place at left tackle in case the latter is forced to miss any time, with the Cowboys' next game taking place against the Bengals on Sunday, Dec. 9.
Nov 28, 2024
Leaves game with injuries
Guyton (knee/ankle) is questionable to return to Thursday's game against the Giants, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS

Nov 20, 2024
Past shoulder issue
Guyton (shoulder) was listed as a full participant on Wednesday's practice estimation, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.
ANALYSIS
Guyton sustained a shoulder injury in the Cowboys' Week 11 loss to the Texans, but Wednesday's estimated full practice session suggests that he's already moved past the issue. With the 2024 first-round pick back at full health, he's expected to serve as Dallas' top left tackle as the season progresses.
Nov 18, 2024
Questionable to return Monday
Guyton (shoulder) is questionable to return to Monday night's game against the Texans, Nick Harris of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.
ANALYSIS
The starting left tackle missed Dallas' Week 10 loss to Philadelphia with a shoulder injury but returned to practice ahead of Monday night's matchup with Houston. Guyton has started all eight games he's played in this season. Asim Richards is his backup.
Nov 14, 2024
Practices Thursday
Guyton (shoulder) was a full participant in Thursday's practice, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.
ANALYSIS
The starting left tackle missed Dallas' Week 10 loss to Philadelphia with the injury, but he appears on track to play in Week 11 against Houston. The 2024 first-round pick has started all seven games he's played in this season.
Nov 10, 2024
Won't play vs. Philadelphia
Guyton (neck/shoulder) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Eagles.
ANALYSIS
Guyton has been limited in practice all week due to neck and shoulder injuries, and it appears severe enough for him to not play Sunday. Second-year tackle Asim Richards will draw the start at left tackle due to Guyton being sidelined.
Oct 9, 2024
Logs full practice Wednesday
Guyton (knee) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.
ANALYSIS
Wednesday's full practice indicates that Guyton has already moved past the knee injury he sustained during the Cowboys' Week 5 win over the Steelers. Expect the 2024 first-round pick to continue serving as Dallas' top left tackle as the season progresses.
Oct 7, 2024
Is day-to-day
Guyton is listed as day-to-day with the knee injury he sustained during Sunday's game at Pittsburgh, Patrik Walker of the Cowboys' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Guyton was forced out of the Cowboys' win in Week 5 early with a knee issue, but it doesn't seem like it's too severe. Dallas' first official practice report of the week Wednesday should provide more clarity on his status for Week 6.
Oct 6, 2024
Questionable to return
Guyton (knee) is questionable to return to Sunday's contest against the Steelers, Calvin Watkins of The Dallas Morning News reports.
ANALYSIS
Guyton suffered a knee injury in the second quarter and was subsequently removed from the contest. Tyler Smith shifted out to left tackle, while T.J. Bass entered the lineup at left guard in Guyton's absence.
Sep 4, 2024
Ready for Week 1
Guyton (knee) was left off Dallas' injury report Wednesday ahead of Sunday's Week 1 contest against the Browns, Nick Harris of the Cowboys' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
The 2024 first-round pick out of Oklahoma left Cowboys camp a couple weeks ago with a knee injury, but it appears he's recovered just in time for the team's regular-season opener Sunday. With Guyton back at full health, he's expected to protect Dak Prescott's blindside throughout his rookie campaign.
Aug 21, 2024
Leaves Wednesday's practice
Guyton left Wednesday's camp session with a sore knee, Clarence E. Hill Jr. of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.
ANALYSIS
The 2024 first-round pick out of Oklahoma is expected to serve as Dallas' top left tackle in his rookie season, so don't be surprised if the team is cautious with his knee injury. If Guyton misses some time, expect Asim Richards or Matt Waletzko to get more reps with the Cowboys' first-team offensive line.

Impressing to begin camp
Guyton took reps as the first-team left tackle in the Cowboys' first padded practice Tuesday and shut down Micah Parsons when the two were lined up against each other, Nick Harris of the team's website reports.
ANALYSIS
Selected with the 29th overall pick in the 2024 Draft, Guyton has some massive cleats to fill as he attempts to replace future Hall of Famer Tyron Smith at left tackle, but so far in camp the Oklahoma product looks ready for the challenge. The Dallas offensive line has long been a strength for the club, and while Guyton might have some rookie growing pains, it appears the transition on Dak Prescott's blind side could be relatively seamless.
