Patmon will likely have a bigger role than expected now that Orlando Scandrick has been lost for the season with a torn ACL. |
Scandrick was the Cowboys' best slot cornerback, but those duties should now fall to Patmon as both Mo Claiborne and first round pick Byron Jones are better suited to work on the outside. Don't expect big IDP numbers from Patmon, but he could add a few INTs to the team's totals. |

Patmon may be out three-to-four weeks with a sprained MCL in his left knee, ESPN Dallas reports. |
Patmon suffered the injury in the first half of Sunday's game against the Jaguars, and is set to undergo more tests after the team arrives in Dallas. The team will probably add another cornerback to their roster with only three listed on the current active roster. The move could involve promoting Micah Pellerin from the practice squad or signing a free agent. |

Patmon returned his first career interception for a touchdown on Sunday. |
The rookie corner is starting to carve out a role for himself in the Cowboys' nickel and dime packages, but don't look for Patmon to have many more highlight reel moments this season. |

Patmon made a huge impression in Saturday's preseason game, pulling down two INTs (returning one for a touchdown) and forcing a fumble. |
With Orlando Scandrick suspended to begin the season and Mo Claiborne once again banged up, Patmon's performance may have been enough to earn the undrafted rookie free agent a spot on the 53-man roster. |
