Cowboys LB DeMarcus Ware is active for Saturday night’s game against the Saints, six days after he sustained a neck injury that put his status in doubt.

The Cowboys had listed Ware as questionable on their Friday injury report. He strained his neck in a headfirst collision during Sunday’s loss to the Chargers.

Inactive for the Cowboys are S Patrick Watkins; CB Cletis Gordon; OLs Montrae Holland, Duke Preston and Marc Colombo; TE Martellus Bennett and DE Curtis Johnson. Stephen McGee is the No. 3 QB.

As reported by NFL Network’s Jason La Canfora, Saints TE Jeremy Shockey is inactive because of a turf toe. Also inactive for the Saints are K John Carney, S Usama Young, CBs Marcus McCauley and Jabari Greer, LB Anthony Waters, OL Jamar Nesbit and DE Sedrick Ellis. The Saints didn’t list a No. 3 QB.
