The loss of Guyton for an extended period could have been devastating, considering medical officials first made sure his ACL was secure. Once that ligament was declared in good shape, further examinations revealed the fractured bone and sprain in the knee.

According to multiple reports, Guyton has a broken bone in his right knee that will not require surgery and he could miss four to six weeks. The Cowboys open the season at the Philadelphia Eagles on Sept. 4, meaning a recovery on the longer end of that timeframe would put Guyton's availability in question for that NFC East game.

Talk about a major injury scare. On Monday, the Dallas Cowboys feared starting left tackle Tyler Guyton had suffered a season-ending torn ACL. However, when the MRI results came back, they learned it was a bone fracture and a knee sprain, which is expected to knock Guyton out for four to six weeks.
