The Dallas Cowboys do not believe Miles Austin's strained hamstring is as serious as the hamstring injuries that have limited the wide receiver in each of the past two seasons, a source told Todd Archer of ESPN Dallas. The Cowboys will be cautious this week with Austin, who suffered the injury in Sunday's 31-7 victory over the St. Louis Rams, and will see how he feels Wednesday before determining if he will practice. Austin missed six games in 2011 and was limited at times last season despite playing in every game. Austin strained his left hamstring in the third quarter Sunday on a deep throw from Tony Romo. After the game, Cowboys coach Jason Garrett said Austin could have returned if the Rams had come back, Dallas had a 24-0 lead at the time of the injury. Source:The Redzone
Wonder if he changed his name to Steve Austin if it would make any difference. For those who don't get that.

I know I got it, it's where I got my first name. No lie. As for Austin, damn this man is brittle. Cowboys better hit him up for a big paycut, he's earning it.
I heard this morning from Mike Fischer of 105.3 The Fan that Bleacher Report had the audacity to report that the Cowboys were looking to trade Austin to the Lions. No truth to it.
