The Dallas Cowboys are once again going to start a pair of UDFAs at the tackle position against the Seattle Seahawks, as seven-time Pro Bowler Tyron Smith is set to miss his second consecutive game with neck stingers. Brandon Knight, who filled in admirably in Week 2 against the Atlanta Falcons, will once again get the nod at left tackle. Meanwhile rookie UDFA Terence Steele will get start No. 3 on the opposite end with RT La’el Collins on injured reserve.

Meanwhile some good news on the defensive side of the ball. DeMarcus Lawrence, who missed the second half of last week with a knee ailment and missed time in practice this week, is set to give it a go at left defensive end. All eyes will be on he and Everson Griffen, as the belief is Mike Nolan has backed off his plan to have the two operate out of the two-point stance.

In a bit of a surprise, rookie third-round defensive tackle Neville Gallimore seems to be a healthy scratch unless there was a late injury that has yet to be reported. Gallimore saw just 20 snaps in the first two games of the season.

On the opposite sideline, the biggest news is that corner Quinton Dunbar will be out. The big offseason signing will not be able to help in trying to contain a Cowboys attack that’s put up 40 points over their last three quarters.
