If Dez Bryant can’t play Sunday against the 49ers because of his thigh contusion, Miles Austin said the Cowboys have confidence in third-year receiver Kevin Ogletree.
“Kevin’s ready,” Austin said. “He knows all the positions. Inside. Outside. I feel like that’s one of the things a bunch of the receivers know, is all the positions. He’s definitely going to be ready if someone can’t.”
Austin caught five passes for 90 yards last week against the Jets, including a 36-yard touchdown catch in which he outwrestled Antonio Cromartie for the ball.
But he didn’t take anything from the performance.
“We lost. So we’ve just got to be ready for this week and be ready to get things going,” he said.
Austin said the team’s mood has been good this week.
“It’s positive. Guys were coming in ready to work all week,” he said.
