Add Miles Austin to the list of injured Dallas Cowboys. Actually, re-add Austin to the list as the Cowboys’ stud receiver injured his right hamstring during his team’s 23-13 win over the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday. Austin now joins fellow starters Sean Lee, Mike Jenkins and Felix Jones on the Dallas injury report.

Austin pulled up limping and grabbing the back of his right thigh after a 37-yard catch in the second quarter and did not return to the contest. He was seen in street clothes in the sideline in the second half. Cowboys receiver Laurent Robinson replaced Austin and caught five passes for 32 yards and a touchdown.

Dallas already lost Austin for two games earlier this season with an injury to his left hamstring, so the Pro Bowler will likely miss more time due to this injury. However, Austin said he won’t make any assumptions until after he gets an MRI.

“It’s really early,” Austin said. “I need to get an MRI and wake up in the morning and see how I feel. I can’t say I’ll be back and practicing on Thursday or playing. It’s very surprising. You don’t expect something like that but the other guys stepped up as they should and I’m going to try to get back. It’s paramount I try to get back as quick as I can.”
