Despite the big win, the Cowboys have suffered a massive injury. Starting center Cooper Beebe has reportedly suffered a high-ankle sprain.
According to Ian Rapoport, Beebe will be out for six to eight weeks, as he heals from a high-ankle sprain.
"#Cowboys center Cooper Beebe, a key part of their stellar O-line, is expected to miss 6-8 weeks with a high-ankle sprain, sources say. He's almost certainly headed to Injured Reserve, but should be back in the second half of the season," the post reads.
Beebe is an anchor on a strong offensive line, so losing him for multiple weeks will be tough for the Cowboys to deal with.

The usual case for a high-ankle sprain is to be out for a minimum of six weeks, and the Cowboys will likely place Beebe on injured reserve in the coming days.
Brock Hoffman is likely going to move into the center position, and the Cowboys might also look to trade or find some offensive line help via free agency. This issue is that offensive linemen are hard to come by at this stage of the regular season.
Dallas is now 1-1 on the season after grinding out a win against the Giants. They dropped Week 1 against the Philadelphia Eagles with a final score of 24-20.
Divisional matchups are always tough, but the Cowboys being able to keep pace with the Eagles proves the team might be able to return to the postseason. The defense needs to start picking things up and getting stops, but the offense has been humming along.
It will be interesting to see what happens to the offensive line with Beebe out for multiple weeks, and the Cowboys will need to find answers quickly, as they will face the Chicago Bears in Week 3.
