OXNARD, Calif. -One of the most notable omissions from the Cowboys' gameday lineup in the preseason opener against the Los Angeles Rams was Tyler Booker.

Though it was expected players like Dak Prescott, CeeDee Lamb, Tyler Smith, and the like, would not be permitted to take the field at SoFi Stadium on Saturday, it came as a bit of a surprise that the rookie first-round pick was also a healthy scratch.

On Monday, offensive coordinator Klayton Adams explained the thought process, and hasn't ruled Booker out of potentially (and likely?) taking the field against the Baltimore Ravens at AT&T Stadium.

"I think, in regards to Book, it's more about looking at those things week-to-week and how much contact he's had during that week. Obviously, during that week, we had a very long, physical practice with the Rams and their starting group. It's really more about workload during the week than anything else. We felt like that was the right decision to make for that week, and will assess if that's the right decision to make for this week."
