Head coach Brian Schottenheimer said Saturday that Guyton (knee) is trending toward doing some work at practice in the coming week, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.
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.

Cowboys' Tyler Guyton: Believes he'll be ready for Week 1
Rotowire
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.
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 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.

Cowboys' Tyler Guyton: Working out on sidelines
Rotowire
Guyton (knee) was working with resistance bands on the sidelines during Wednesday's practice, Todd Archer of ESPN reports.
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.

Cowboys' Tyler Guyton: Could play in opener
Rotowire
Guyton (knee) could be ready for the team's Week 1 matchup versus the Eagles, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.
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.

Cowboys' Tyler Guyton: Out several weeks with knee injury
Rotowire
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.
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.

Cowboys' Tyler Guyton: Cleared to play Monday
Rotowire
Guyton (ankle/knee) is active for Monday's game against the Bengals, Nick Harris of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.
Guyton suffered a high-ankle sprain against the Giants on Thanksgiving Day 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.
Guyton (ankle/knee) is questionable to play in Monday's Week 14 battle against the Bengals, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.
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.
