The Cowboys are heading to New Orleans to face the Saints in an NFC battle on ‘Thursday Night Football’ this week.
The Cowboys (7-4) are coming off two straight losses to the AFC West teams, the Raiders and the Chiefs. The Saints (5-6) are coming off four straight losses, including a 31-6 loss to the Bills on Thanksgiving.
After having a week off, the Cowboys are dealing with some COVID-19 issues. Coach Mike McCarthy tested positive Monday. Wide receiver Amari Cooper tested positive on November 19, but since he’s not vaccinated, he had to miss the last two games. He is expected to play Thursday night.
The Saints have been dealing with quarterback issues for the past month since their starting quarterback, Jameis Winston, suffered a torn ACL at the end of the season. Trevor Siemian started the last four games, so he has yet to win a game for the Saints. Taysom Hill, who started some for the Saints last season, is expected to start Thursday. He suffered a concussion in week 5 and has been dealing with a foot injury ever since.
Here’s everything you need to know to watch the Cowboys vs Saints game on ‘Thursday Night Football’, including start time, TV channels, and a full ‘Thursday Night Football’ 2021 schedule.
