Austin was targeted twice by Tony Romo before he left, but failed to record a catch. The Cowboys have struggled to move the ball all day, and have fallen behind 28-6 in their annual holiday contest.
The seventh-year wide receiver out of Monmouth has 49 catches for 727 yards and four touchdowns on the year. He has not missed a game this season after appearing in just 10 in 2011.
The Cowboys allowed 28 points in the second quarter after taking a 3-0 lead in the first. They moved the ball to add a field goal to start the third, but have a long hill to climb if they are going to come back.
