Dallas Cowboys cornerback DaRon Bland underwent successful surgery on his left foot in Indianapolis, the team announced Tuesday on its website.
Bland’s procedure was done by Dr. David Porter, an orthopedic team physician for the Indianapolis Colts. The surgery was meant to repair the fifth metatarsal bone in Bland’s foot.
Bland notably injured the same bone ahead of the 2024 season. That injury cost him the first 10 games of the year. He dealt with foot problems numerous times during the 2025 season but played through them until he was placed on injured reserve in December.
The cornerback finished the 2025 campaign with 73 total tackles, six pass deflections, three tackles for loss and an interception. His lone interception, a 68-yard pick-six, came in an Oct. 19 win over the Washington Commanders.
