49ers left tackle Trent Williams and linebacker Dre Greenlaw are questionable for Sunday's game at the Cowboys.

Williams hurt his shoulder Thursday and sat out Friday's practice, while Greenlaw hurt his knee in the same session and was a limited participant. Coach Kyle Shanahan would not say whether either will play, and Vederian Lowe would likely step in if Williams cannot go. The Cowboys have recorded 12 sacks over their past four games.

Giants fall 21-24 to Commanders after a late touchdown drive and a disputed DPI penalty.

John Harbaugh said the failed third-and-1 quarterback sneak by Jameis Winston was a normal sneak and not a Tush Push. Harbaugh said he would not have tried the delay-of-game trick on the fourth-and-1 play again. CBS Sports reported Giants players criticized the DPI penalty, and ESPN said New York's division lead is shrinking.
