Ausitn Could Miss a Week with Hamstring Injury

Dallas Cowboys receiver Miles Austin is expected to miss at least a few days with a strained hamstring.

Coach Jason Garrett said Sunday that the team will be cautious with Austin, who missed six games last season because of problems with both hamstrings. The coach said Austin was having a great start to camp, but could be out up to a week even though the team doesn't think the injury is serious.

While Austin is out of practice, undrafted rookie receiver Cole Beasley returned to camp after going home to deal with some personal issues.

Beasley wasn't specific on what those issues were but said he is now fully focused on football. He was back for a walk-through practice Sunday and was set to participate in the afternoon scrimmage.
