Contract negotiations between the Cowboys and franchised Tight End Dalton Schultz aren’t going great at the moment. With Schultz now skipping summer practices out of frustration, should Dallas start considering other options? One particularly intriguing one is free agent Eric Ebron. News came out yesterday that Schultz would sit out of the remainder of this week’s …
Dalton Schultz has yet to receive a long-term contract this offseason and is reportedly frustrated with the lack of progress. The Cowboys tight end, currently with Dallas on the franchise tag, will now be skipping this week’s voluntary organized team activities as negotiations continue. Mandatory mini-camp for veterans starts next Tuesday, June 14th. To be fair, …
Terence Steele being handed the Cowboys’ starting job at right tackle was one of the major developments of the 2022 offseason. The third-year OT will face heavy scrutiny given the circumstances of his ascension, and Dallas’ faith in him will lead to heavy criticism if he doesn’t perform. The Cowboys released veteran La’el Collins in March …
Malik Hooker comeback campaign was successful enough in 2021, earning him a new two-year deal with the Cowboys this offseason. But the former 1st-round pick has plenty more to prove, and Dallas is banking on even better performance from the projected starting safety next season. Once the 15th-overall pick in the 2017 NFL Draft, Hooker’s never …
Most signs point to 2022 as a make-or-break season for Running Back Ezekiel Elliott and his future in Dallas. While the team has expressed loyalty toward Zeke in some offseason comments, the Cowboys are clearly leaving their options open. One of the clearest signs that a team is considering moving on, especially given Dallas’ modern history, …
Damone Clark isn’t the first rookie linebacker to join the Cowboys and have to spend most of his rookie year worrying about an injury. But with only a 5th-round pick on the line, Clark’s recovery and future create a low-risk, high-reward scenario that shows Dallas may be getting smarter with its draft gambling. Earlier this year, …
Cowboys Nation was rocked yesterday by the tragic news of Marion Barber III’s untimely passing. There was outpouring of condolences and love for the former Dallas running back throughout social media, and a particularly touching tribute came from Jason Garrett.

NFL coaches love to tell you that competition happens at every spot on the roster every day. But we all know that some players’ job security is better than others, and today we’re going to look at five Dallas Cowboys who face major fights to remain with the team in 2022. Every player would love to …
Israel Mukuamu goes mostly unmentioned these days in talk about the Cowboys’ 2022 roster. But with his size and versatility, the second-year prospect shouldn’t be slept on as a potential contributor for Dallas next season. A 6th-round pick in last year’s draft, Mukuamu spent most of his rookie season as a gameday inactive behind more experienced …
Offensive Tackle Josh Ball spent his rookie season with the Cowboys on inured reserve. After serving the NFL’s version of a “redshirt” year, will Ball step into a contributing role for Dallas in 2022? A high-ankle sprain early in last year’s training camp kept Ball off the practice field and out of all preseason games. It …
It’s been two years since the Dallas Cowboys made Quarterback Ben DiNucci a 7th-round draft pick. The mostly forgotten prospect is still on the roster ahead of the 2022 season and, barring any late changes, will be back competing for a job in training camp. DiNucci’s unorthodox throwing style and scrambling ability gave him intrigue as …
Luke Gifford was the Cowboys’ busiest special teams player last season, leading the teams in total snaps. Back in Dallas for 2022 on a new one-year contract, will Gifford finally become a bigger part of the linebacker rotation? C.J. Goodwin may be the special teams ace in Dallas but Gifford’s 368 total snaps topped his 332 …
A common consequence of the NFL Draft is that new arrivals steal the spotlight away from some of the returning talent. The Dallas Cowboys 2022 roster has some examples of that, plus a few other players who seem to be flying under the radar as we prepare for training camp. Today let’s look at five players …
Despite being just a 4th-round pick, Running Back Tony Pollard is now easily the best player from the Cowboys’ 2019 draft class. With that group’s rookie contracts all expiring after this season, Pollard’s impending free agency will be a focal point throughout 2022. With the 2019 1st-round pick going to the Raiders for Amari Cooper, the …
The Dallas Cowboys will be spending the first half of their preseason out west following their traditional training camp location in Oxnard, CA. During the weeks leading up to road games against the Denver Broncos and Los Angeles Chargers in August, the AFC West teams will host the Cowboys in joint practices. Dallas’ preseason opener against …
Noah Brown is currently preparing for a sixth season with the Cowboys, having recently re-signed with the team on a new one-year contract. But given the changed landscape of the WR position in Dallas in 2022, could Brown’s return wind up being short-lived? A 7th-round pick in 2017, Noah keeps finding work with the Cowboys as …
The Cowboys’ wide receiver position has gotten a lot ink over the last three months of the 2022 offseason. Though Dallas has made some big moves here, the hype around “need” at WR has always felt more like hysteria than reality. We went into the offseason knowing that Michael Gallup and Cedrick Wilson would be free …
The price of beef may be going up nationwide but it should be going down on the NFL’s free agent market. Several notable defensive tackles remain unsigned and a few of them are veteran run stuffers who might be able to make an immediate contribution for the Dallas Cowboys. In late March we tossed out Akiem …
The Cowboys waived Kicker Chris Naggar yesterday, giving the former Longhorn and Mustang a trivial offseason stay with his hometown team. Undrafted free agent Jonathan Garibay is now the only kicker on Dallas’ roster, but will that remain the case between now and Week One? Naggar spent most of 2021 on the Cleveland Browns’ practice squad …
Don’t be fooled, Cowboys Nation. Any talk you’ve seen recently about Dallas having one of the easiest schedules in 2022 is based on the faultiest of logic. Let’s just quickly debunk this nonsense.
