With the weekend off, the Cowboys have the opportunity to get guys healthy.

And one of their most important ones said he’s going to be fine by the time the team plays in the divisional round.

Via Brandon George of the Dallas Morning News, Cowboys left tackle Tyron Smith worked on the side Friday and said afterward he was ready to play next week.

Smith left during their Week 16 win over the Lions after aggravating an MCL sprain, and sat out the regular season finale.

They started Emmett Cleary in his place, but getting Smith back on the field will be a big boost to their run and pass game.
