RT Marc Colombo has been cleared to return for some "on-field work" at practice field this week.
From Todd Archer:
Colombo said "everything is looking good," for a possible return this season and his eyes are set on a possible wild-card round playoff game. Initially it was believed Colombo would only be able to return for the divisional round.
Colombo said the pain would not be an issue but strength would be.

Cowboys TE Martellus Bennett (concussion) and RT Marc Colombo (leg, ankle) have been cleared to resume practicing.
Colombo's return will improve Dallas' strong-side blocking, while getting Bennett back will give OCB Jason Garrett more options. It's worth noting, however, that rookie John Phillips played well in Bennett's place against the Saints, catching three balls for 40 yards. Bennett won't make a fantasy impact.

Nice to have columbo back! though I am well pleased with the Play of doug free. He stepped in and did a admirable job. That is one oline position we dont have to worry about in the future. Prossman

Doug "Freak" has done a nice job. Would be nice to have Columbo back %100 sometime in the playoffs. Even with Doug showing to be capable of playing I would still like to see Jerah use a 1st or 2nd rounder on a premium Tackle prospect.

it would be nice to use them a a wide line on one side to get the defense a bit worked up.

It's a good time of the season to be getting healthy. Hamlin, Columbo, Bennett... All hopefully ready to contribute fully very soon.
