Malik Hooker injury update: Latest news on Cowboys safety's status in Week 4 image

The Dallas Cowboys have an injury concern with safety Malik Hooker in the first half of the Week 4 game against the Green Bay Packers.

Hooker suffered the injury in the second quarter after an incomplete pass on a deep ball from Packers quarterback Jordan Love.

Hooker was clearly hobbled and needed assistance on the sideline. It appeared he was dealing with a foot or ankle injury, as he couldn't walk on his own.

Here's the latest update on Hooker's status for the rest of Week 4.
