Anthony Brown started his 42nd career game for the Dallas Cowboys last night; a true achievement for any player taken in the 6th round of the NFL Draft.

Starting Right Tackle La’el Collins is currently missing practices with a neck stinger.

One of the common thoughts prevailing throughout Cowboys Nation is that Dallas will be able to re-sign Michael Gallup in 2022 for less than they are currently playing Amari Cooper.

Malik Hooker joined the Cowboys this offseason after his rookie contract with the Indianapolis Colts expired.
