ARLINGTON, Texas — Dallas Cowboys linebacker DeMarvion Overshown sustained what coach Mike McCarthy called a serious knee injury in the fourth quarter of Monday night's game against the Cincinnati Bengals. Overshown had braced to take on a block when Bengals center Ted Karras rolled into his right leg. Overshown missed all of his rookie season a year ago with a torn ligament in his left knee. The injury came in the first game for Dallas since Overshown's spectacular 23-yard interception return for a touchdown in a 27-20 victory over the New York Giants on Thanksgiving. Overshown is second on the team in sacks to pass rushing star Micah Parsons.
