DeVonte Holloman Dealing with Neck Injury

Holloman was injured during Saturday's preseason matchup with the Ravens

Cowboys linebacker DeVonte Holloman was forced out of Saturdayโ€™s preseason game against the Ravens with a neck injury, Jason Garrett confirmed this week, and heโ€™ll reportedly go to San Antonio on Tuesday to see a specialist.

This is particularly concerning for the team as Holloman missed seven games last season with a spinal contusion. He still finished his rookie season of 2013 with 26 tackles, including one for a loss, and two sacks.

โ€œHeโ€™s still getting evaluated on that, but it is a neck injury,โ€ Garrett told the teamโ€™s official website. โ€œHe had a neck injury last year, so weโ€™ll just monitor him after he gets the feedback from the doctors. Weโ€™re obviously looking at that situation very closely.โ€
