On Sunday, the Dallas Cowboys nearly lost more than just the game when wide receiver Cole Beasley left the game cringing after taking a hit to the back.

On third and 15 with 0:35 to play in the game, rookie Dak Prescott dropped back and delivered a strike to wide receiver Cole Beasley for the first down.

Beasley would pay for his service, though, as Janoris Jenkins lays a blast to his back which then saw the wideout leaving the field in noticeable pain. It looked initially to be a shoulder injury based on Beasley's body language, but he took to twitter Monday morning to clear up any concerns in the Cowboys' fandom.

Shoulder is good. Just a stinger. We will only get better from here. #cowboysnation thanks for your support. — Cole Beasley (@Bease11) September 12, 2016

While it's good news there is no longterm issue with his shoulder, stingers can prove persistent as offensive tackle Tyron Smith can attest. The All-Pro lineman missed much of the preseason with one, and was again evaluated during the game Sunday before re-entering.

A tough loss to swallow for the Cowboys, they'll have to compose themselves quickly and win against another divisional foe Week 2 in the Washington Redskins. Having Beasley on the field will certainly help their chances.
