Still dealing with a foot injury that kept him out of last week’s win at the Giants, Dallas Cowboys WR Brice Butler will be out for his second straight game as he will miss the Cowboys’ prime time match up against his former Raiders squad.
Expected by some to have a breakout season in his third with the Cowboys, Butler has caught just 13 passes for 267 yards and two touchdowns on this 2017 season – his last under contract with the team.
Just in: WR Brice Butler has been downgraded from questionable to out vs. Raiders. He will not be traveling with the team to Oakland.

Butler’s absence in Oakland will take one more offensive threat away from the Cowboys in their final game of this season without RB Ezekiel Elliott.
Rookie WR Noah Brown, who has already exceeded expectations as a seventh round pick, should expect to see more snaps with Brice Butler out tomorrow night.
C’mon Sean…he has 13 catches for 267 yards in yet another, but 5th irrelevant season. Brice Butler will never become who you think he should be.
