ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) - Four-time Pro Bowl left tackle Tyron Smith is active along with kicker Dan Bailey for the Dallas Cowboys in their Thanksgiving game against the Los Angeles Chargers.

LA right tackle Joe Barksdale is returning after missing four straight games with a foot injury. Barksdale has been out five games overall.

Smith missed two games with groin and back injuries, both losses as Dallas was also without running back Ezekiel Elliott, who has four games remaining on his six-game suspension for alleged domestic violence. Bailey was sidelined four games after injuring his right groin at San Francisco.

Dallas linebacker Sean Lee had already been declared out for the second straight game because of a hamstring injury. It's the fourth game the 2016 All-Pro has missed with the injury.
