The Dallas Cowboys have been rolling offensively in 2025. A huge reason for that, and it’s no surprise to anyone, is the play of quarterback Dak Prescott who is second in the NFL with 1,881 passing yards. Last week, he got his No. 1 option back in All-Pro wide receiver CeeDee Lamb who posted 110 yards on five receptions and a touchdown.
When the Cowboys travel to play the Denver Broncos this Sunday, Lamb will have a big challenge on his hands. He’ll be going up against the reigning Defensive Player of the Year in All-Pro cornerback Patrick Surtain. So...

For the past few years, the Dallas Cowboys’ secondary has been a cornerstone of their defensive identity; fast, physical, and opportunistic.
The combination of Trevon Diggs’ ball-hawking ability, DaRon Bland’s versatility, and a safety group that flew around under former DC Dan Quinn made the unit one of the most feared in football.
However, that dominance came before the Mike Zimmer–Matt Eberflus era, and the winds have shifted. What was once considered a long-term strength may now be entering a full-blown transition.
Injuries, scheme changes, and free agency decisions have left the Cowboys staring at a very different secondary for...

The NFL’s trade deadline is a week and a half away and it seems like the Dallas Cowboys are going to do something. Exactly what that something is remains to be seen, obviously.
According to a report from The Athletic’s Dianna Russini on Saturday morning… Jerry Jones is prioritizing a defensive player that is not a pass rusher.
Earlier this week the Cowboys were connected to both Maxx Crosby (by Trey Wingo) and Trey Hendrickson (by ESPN) as far as trade rumors are concerned. Both of those players are in fact pass rushers so this latest report runs a little...

We are just about midway through the entire NFL regular season, so it’s time for a Week 8 Cowboys rookie report. The weeks always fly by for the fans, and it must feel that way for the young players grinding through their first year.
Especially in the case of Dallas’s draftees, nearly all have had a whirlwind of a rookie campaign, as injuries and performances have varied.
It has been hard to judge them as a group at this point because of that, but we are starting to see the tide turn with both their health and on-field play. With...

The Dallas Cowboys will travel to Denver, Colorado, where the elevation sits at 5,280 feet. For those who paid attention in science class, that’s exactly a mile above sea level, which is why they are accurately labeled the Mile High City. The Cowboys have not beaten the Broncos in over 30 years, with their last victory coming in September of the Super-Bowl-winning 1995 season. Over these 30 years, the teams played seven times, with Dallas losing every time. It’s the longest current losing streak the Cowboys have against any team in the NFL.
Dallas looks to put an end to...

Another week, and another injury report that is filled with a bunch of Dallas Cowboy names.
The Dallas Cowboys take on the Denver Broncos tomorrow, a team that has owned them the last few times they have played.
Dallas finds themselves in sole possession of second place in the NFC East, and can prove a lot of folks wrong with they win this game tomorrow.
With CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens, anything can happen, but the defense is still a glaring issue, and they will be without two guys in the secondary once again.
Take a look below and see...

Overshown’s recovery has been amazing, and he feels better than ever.
There’s been a noticeable difference at Dallas Cowboys practice the last two days. There’s a defensive player wearing the No. 0 jersey with pink tape on his wrists and ankles.
For the first time since his season-ending knee injury last December, linebacker DeMarvion Overshown has returned to practice. He has been limited Wednesday and Thursday, focusing on individual drills as the Cowboys opened his 21-day practice window...

The Dallas Cowboys 2025 season has been a roller-coaster that somehow has ended up in the mid-point between the ascent and the drop, a dead-even 3-3-1 record through seven games. Say what you want, but Cowboys games this year rarely lack for excitement. Overtime wins, overtime ties, last-second field goals, points lighting up the scoreboard; if nothing else, the Cowboys are entertaining this year.
But all that back and forth can take a toll on the fanbase. One week they’re up, the next they’re down. That’s the NFL though, a week-to-week league if there ever was one. And so this...

Despite showing some improvement last week against the Washington Commanders, the Dallas Cowboys defense is still dead last in the league in total defense, yielding 401.6 yards per game. They also currently rank last in the league in passing yards per game (260.3) and are also currently 30th in the league in both rushing yards allowed per game (141.3) and points allowed per game (29.4).
It’s encouraging we saw Matt Eberflus’ defensive unit show signs of improvement last week against the Commanders though. They played much more man-to-man coverage last week and it seemed to pay off. Not only did...

After last week’s cakewalk of a win against the Washington Commanders, the Dallas Cowboys find themselves back in the race for the NFC East crown. Injuries have certainly hampered the Cowboys, but the injury bug isn’t biting as badly as it once was. Many players are getting healthier and are on the cusp of returning. Here’s where the Cowboys stand after the final injury report of the week heading into the game against the Denver Broncos.
The Cowboys’ offensive line is looking healthier. Tyler Smith (knee) was upgraded to a full participant and will play against the Broncos. Tyler Guyton...
