Ware Still Not Practicing, But Says He'll Play Sunday

DeMarcus Ware is dealing with a hyperextended elbow and a strained shoulder

It looks like the Dallas Cowboys’ only defensive Pro Bowler will be on the field in Landover, Maryland on Sunday night.

Outside linebacker DeMarcus Ware missed practice yet again on Friday as he deals with a hyperextended elbow and, more recently, a strained right shoulder. But according to ESPN Dallas’ Calvin Watkins, Ware says he will play in the Cowboys’ week 17, win-or-go-home match-up with the Redskins.

Ware ended up playing without a shoulder harness in last Sunday’s loss to the Saints, but will have one on for the Washington game. On the official report released by the team on Friday, he is listed as probable.

Ware leads the Cowboys with 11.5 sacks and five forced fumbles on the season.
