Dallas Cowboys Linebacker Marist Liufau Suffers Forearm Injury

The Dallas Cowboys have suffered an untimely injury blow just days before they begin the 2026 regular season. Outside linebacker Marist Liufau fractured his left forearm during Friday’s preseason finale against the New Orleans Saints and is expected to miss several weeks.

The injury occurred late in the first quarter while Liufau was making a tackle during Dallas’ 27-24 loss. He was later seen wearing a sling and soft cast on the sidelines.

The franchise now faces a difficult roster challenge as they prepare for the upcoming fixtures without a key defensive contributor. Medical staff will continue to monitor his rehabilitation process closely over the coming weeks.

Fans and coaching staff alike hope for a swift and complete recovery as the team navigates early-season adversity.
