Overshown was a limited participant in Tuesday's training camp practice due to soreness in his legs and lower body, Nick Harris of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports. The limitations on Overshown's practice reps was a cautionary move by the Cowboys, and the 2023 third-rounder's injuries aren't a long-term concern. Overshown missed the first nine games of the 2025 regular season while recovering from a torn ACL, MCL and PCL that he sustained in December of 2024 and then missed the final two contests while in the league's concussion protocol.

Overshown has been practicing at middle and weakside linebacker during minicamp, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports. The linebacker is also healthy and wearing no knee brace, per Machota. That's significant, seeing as he missed 12 games with a knee injury in 2025. Overshown made an impact in 2024, with 90 tackles (56 solo), including 5.0 sacks, four pass breakups, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery across 13 regular-season games.

Overshown (concussion) is taking part in the Cowboys' offseason program, Joseph Hoyt of The Dallas Morning News reports. Overshown missed 12 games in 2025 after dealing with a lingering knee injury to begin the season and then sat out the Cowboys' final two contests with a concussion. The 25-year-old is expected to participate in his healthiest offseason since his rookie year and looks to build on his 28 tackles (15 solo) through six games in 2025.

Overshown (concussion) has been ruled out ahead of Thursday's matchup against the Commanders, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports. The third-year pro from Texas sustained a concussion in the Week 16 loss to the Chargers, so it's no surprise that he'll be sidelined Thursday. Overshown has appeared in six contests since returning from a knee injury in the Week 11 matchup against the Raiders, recording 28 total tackles. While he's out in Week 17, expect Marist Liufau to operate as Dallas' top weakside linebacker.

Overshown finished with six tackles (two solo) in Thursday's 31-28 win over the Chiefs. The linebacker also played on more than half of the defensive snaps for the third consecutive game since returning from a knee injury that kept him out for the first nine contests of 2025. Overshown recorded 5.0 sacks, four passes defensed, including an interception, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery in 13 games last year, and while he's still looking for his first big play this season, he is at least contributing again.
