The Dallas Cowboys may add help at safety after executive vice president Stephen Jones said Jalen Thompson is likely to miss at least four weeks with a hamstring injury. Jones did not identify any possible targets, including players or teams Dallas might pursue.

Thompson was hurt in the Cowboys’ 34-31 defeat against the Baltimore Ravens in Brazil. Dallas was close to sending the game to overtime, but Baltimore connected on a long pass and then kicked the winning field goal.

Dallas entered that matchup with a 1-2 record. The Cowboys had surrendered a productive offensive showing by the New York Giants in Week 1, then allowed Marcus Mariota to make plays late in Week 2.

The Cowboys are scheduled to visit the 0-3 Houston Texans next Sunday at 1 p.m. Eastern time. The report was published by ClutchPoints.
