The Cowboys will get cornerback Joey Porter Jr. on the field against the Packers on Sunday night, but linebacker DeMarvion Overshown will be watching from home.
Jeremy Fowler (@JFowlerESPN): Cowboys corner Joey Porter Jr. (questionable, ankle) is expected to play today vs Green Bay, per source.
Porter Jr., listed as questionable with an ankle injury, is expected to play at Lambeau Field, per Jeremy Fowler. Overshown, meanwhile, has been officially ruled out and did not travel to Green Bay after the team listed him as questionable on Friday's injury report.
The Cowboys also elevated cornerback Derion Kendrick and safety Juanyeh Thomas from the practice squad for the game. Dallas enters the Sunday night matchup after being listed with a series of defensive injuries, making Porter's availability a key piece for the Cowboys' secondary against a Packers passing attack led by a talented receiver corps.
