DeMarvion Overshown Fantasy Stats

Dallas Cowboys linebacker DeMarvion Overshown (knee) is off the injury report and will make his 2025 debut against the Las Vegas Raiders. Overshown suffered a significant knee injury (Torn ACL, MCL, PCL) in December of 2024 but is making his return just 11 months after the horrifying injury. During his rookie season, Overshown was an impact player for the Cowboys, forcing five sacks, 90 tackles, a forced fumble, and a pick-six in just 13 games. The Cowboys' defense has struggled in both the run game and the passing game, so Overshown's presence will be one to watch on Monday Night when they face the Las Vegas Raiders.

Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said linebacker DeMarvion Overshown (knee) could return to action following the team's bye week on November 9. Overshown has been sidelined since tearing his ACL, MCL, and PCL in December 2024 but has made steady progress in his recovery. Before the injury, the former third-round pick led the Cowboys with 90 tackles in 13 games and showcased elite athleticism throughout his rookie campaign. Jones' update suggests the team is targeting a cautious return timeline to ensure Overshown is fully ready for the stretch run. His eventual return would provide a major boost to a Dallas defense that's been inconsistent and thin at linebacker depth this season after trading Micah Parsons.

Dallas Cowboys linebacker DeMarvion Overshown (knee) has been progressing well in his recovery from a significant knee injury, and there is optimism that he could return around the middle of the 2025 season, sources tell FOX Sports' Jordan Schultz. Overshown was having a breakout campaign in 2024 before his knee injury, piling up 84 tackles, five sacks, an interception, a forced fumble, one fumble recovery, eight tackles for loss and a defensive touchdown in the first 13 games (12 starts) of his NFL career. The 24-year-old former third-rounder (90th overall) in 2023 out of Texas had surgery to fix ACL, MCL and PCL tears in his right knee on Dec. 18. The Cowboys will just be hoping that Overshown will be able to show the same type of burst he had as a pass-rusher in his rookie year when he returns from his serious knee injury. Fantasy managers in single-year IDP formats can ignore Overshown to begin the season.

During his appearance on Good Morning Football, Dallas Cowboys linebacker DeMarvion Overshown (knee) expressed his desire to return to the field at a high level in 2025. "I have my sights set high," proclaimed Overshown. "Not only do I want to be nominated for the Comeback Player of the Year, but I'm going to be the Comeback Player of the Year." Despite his age, the 24-year-old has dealt with his fair share of adversity. He tore his ACL during his days as a Longhorn in 2019 and then did so again in 2023 -- forcing him to miss his rookie season. Overshown was exceptional in 2024, racking up 87 tackles and five sacks in 13 games before tearing the ACL, MCL, and PCL in his right knee. Reports are that the Texas product plans to rejoin the team before December. He's already proven that he can return from a devastating injury twice before, and if he is the player he was before he got hurt, he'll be an impactful asset in IDP leagues. Still, it seems unlikely he'll be ready to hit the field until the back half of the season.

Dallas Cowboys linebacker DeMarvion Overshown (knee) missed his entire rookie season in 2023 due to a torn ACL before returning and being a productive member of the Dallas defense in 2024. The Texas product registered 90 tackles, five sacks, one forced fumble, one fumble recovery, one interception, four pass deflections, and one defensive touchdown in 13 games. Unfortunately, he suffered another ACL tear, costing him the final four games of the regular season. Heading into 2025, Overshown is ready for a bounceback campaign. "The future's looking good, let me tell you that," Overshown said Thursday during an appearance on Good Morning Football. "Just how I came off of last year, I'm 100% positive. I have my sights set high. Not only do I want to be nominated for the Comeback Player of the Year, but I'm going to be the Comeback Player of the Year." Last season, Overshown ranked 13th in total fantasy points from Week 1 until suffering his ACL tear in Week 14.

Dallas Cowboys owner and general manager Jerry Jones said on 105.3 The Fan on Tuesday that linebacker DeMarvion Overshown (knee) will require surgery after injuring his right knee in the Monday night loss to the Cincinnati Bengals. Head coach Mike McCarthy said "it's of a serious nature" and "it's not good," with a source saying the belief is that Overshown suffered more than just an ACL tear. He is set for additional testing on Tuesday to confirm the severity of the injury, but in all likelihood, he will miss the last four games of the regular season. In addition, depending on how his rehab goes in the offseason, Overshown may not be ready for the start of next season. The 24-year-old entered the contest as the team's second leading tackler after missing his entire rookie campaign in 2023 due to a torn ACL in his left knee. Marist Liufau stepped in for Overshown and had 1.5 sacks against Cincy.

Dallas Cowboys rookie linebacker DeMarvion Overshown (knee) suffered a knee injury in the Monday night contest against the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 14 and will not return to the game. Overshown's knee was injured in the fourth quarter when Ted Karras fell on his leg, and he had to be helped off the field by Dallas' trainers. It did not look good. For the rest of the game and possibly moving forward, Marist Liufau will see more playing time in the middle of Dallas' defense next to Eric Kendricks. The 24-year-old Overshown, a third-round selection last year out of Texas, has been very impressive in his first NFL season in 2024, racking up 84 tackles (52 solo), five sacks, eight tackles for loss, five QB hits, an interception returned for a touchdown, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery in 12 games. He's been a top-10 fantasy IDP linebacker in 2024 as one of Dallas' best playmakers on defense.
