The Dallas Cowboys have played two preseason games to date. Neither of these contests featured prominent players from their roster. Dallas did open things up a bit more in their second outing against the Baltimore Ravens, but in their exhibition debut against the Los Angeles Rams there were a number of players who were given the night off.

Varying opinions have been offered about this line of thought and whether or not it is the disposition that the head coach should be using. Brian Schottenheimer is in his inaugural flight as the Cowboys’ skipper, but the team at large has...

When the clock hits zero in the Dallas Cowboys matchup with the Carolina Panthers, Dallas will hit the one-third mark of the season.

If the team takes care of business, they should be at least 3-3 after this game ends.

They will need to be 3-2 coming into this matchup, especially if they continue to struggle to stop the run. The Panthers have two very good running backs to pound away at the Dallas defense.

Chuba Hubbard had 1,195 yards and 10 touchdowns in just 15 games last year for Carolina. He’s joined by former Cowboy Rico Dowdle, who had...

James Houston has done enough to make the Cowboys roster – Shane Taylor, Inside The Star

James Houston could be a great late offseason addition for the Cowboys defense, making a strength in pass rush even stronger.

Depth is a concern in a few areas for the team. However, the Cowboys may have landed a diamond in the rough with the free agency addition of linebacker James Houston.

He has looked awesome through the first two weeks of preseason and is going to make it hard to overlook him for a roster spot.

After hauling in a spectacular catch Saturday night against the Baltimore Ravens helped hype up Jonathan Mingo’s potential for the 2025 season, it looks like things could be put on hold for a while. Nick Harris of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram is reporting that early indications show that Mingo is dealing with a PCL injury that could sideline him for around four weeks.

As Harris points out in his article, there will still need to be further testing done to confirm the actual timeframe of when he could come back. Calvin Watkins stretches the timeframe to six weeks.

The news...

James Houston isn’t a household name, but he is someone you should probably start paying little more attention to because he’s currently making a case to make the Dallas Cowboys final 53-man roster. A late free agent addition, Houston has spent about four weeks with the Cowboys and is starting to turn some heads due to his play over the last two preseason games.

The 6’1″, 241-pound pass rusher is proving he can get after the QB on a continuous basis, finishing with two tackles and two QB hits this past Saturday against the Baltimore Ravens after playing 43 defensive...

The Dallas Cowboys have just four quarters of preseason football left before their first regular season under head coach Brian Schottenheimer begins, after losing 31-13 on Saturday night from AT&T Stadium to the Baltimore Ravens. In some ways the Cowboys have taken the field this preseason as a team ready for meaningful games to begin, in the way they’ve rested key starters like usual and expect these players to give them a winning edge come opening night. In other ways though, the Cowboys have struggled in a lot of areas that have plagued them for multiple recent seasons, and ones...

We’re counting down the days until the Dallas Cowboys battle the Philadelphia Eagles in the season opener of the 2025 NFL season. To pass the time and mark the days, we are running through 100 Days of Cowboys. So sit back and enjoy some Cowboys history while we countdown to football.

Through two preseason games, there is not much to write home about for the Dallas Cowboys.

They have been bad in nearly everything, but one guy is making a huge impression on me and, hopefully, the coaching staff and the front office.

Depth is a concern in a few areas for the team. However, the Cowboys may have landed a diamond in the rough with the free agency addition of linebacker James Houston.

He has looked awesome through the first two weeks of preseason and is going to make it hard to overlook him for a roster spot.

Houston finished...

Fresh off a stint with the DC Defenders of the United Football League, cornerback Michael Ojemudia is now a Dallas Cowboy. A former third-round pick by the Denver Broncos, Ojemudia joins Dallas a few days out from their final 2025 preseason game. Is he just a body for this last August outing, or could he be competitive for a roster spot?

The Broncos drafted Ojemudia 77th overall in 2020. He started 11 games and played in all 16, showing well for a rookie, especially with his four forced fumbles. But Denver loaded up on CB talent the following year, signing...

It has been 17 days since Micah Parsons publicly requested a trade from the Dallas Cowboys. This is important as today marks 17 days left until the team’s season opener on the road against the Philadelphia Eagles. We have officially reached Hump Day as it pertains to this particular part of this unfortunate saga.

In the two and a half weeks since Parsons declared that he no longer wanted to play for the Cowboys, there has been a lot of discussion, pontification and confusion from everybody involved. Based on reports in the window in question, one thing there hasn’t been...

Things have not exactly gone well for the Dallas Cowboys through their first two preseason games. While it is “only the preseason”, the reality of the situation is that we have see this team play two exhibition contests and not ever really look functional at any point across 120 minutes of football.

It is very possible (and honestly somewhat likely) that this will stabilize quickly when we reach the regular season, but the overall point is that the Cowboys are inviting some questions as to who they are these days.

This may sound like a difficult question at our current...

The Dallas Cowboys are entering the 2025 season with one of the most talented rosters in football, but they need a backup for the backup.

Dak Prescott leads the offense, CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens headline the passing attack, and Javonte Williams brings a physical presence to the run game.

On defense, Micah Parsons will continue to be one of the most dominant players in the NFL.

With all that talent, Dallas should be a Super Bowl contender, but one position is threatening to hold everything back: quarterback depth.

Through two preseason games, both Joe Milton III and Will Grier...
