The timing appeared to make it a late pregame change. In a separate post, Ian Rapoport reported that the Cowboys ruled Porter out a couple hours before kickoff.

Later, Mike Garafolo reported that he was told Porter had been vomiting with a bad virus and was “not in a condition to play tonight” for Dallas. Rapoport later reposted that update.

So, based on the supplied reporting, the team announcement established Porter’s illness-related absence for the game, while the more specific description of his condition came later through Garafolo’s report.
