All Dallas Cowboys players and roster news, analysis, and commentary from Inside The Star.
Week one is always filled with uncertainty, and one of those got off to a good start on Sunday. Fifth-round rookie Caelen Carson probably played as well as anyone could have hoped after we all thought that side of the field was in trouble when DaRon Bland got hurt. I was not expecting much from his …
It might only be one game into the season, but the Dallas Cowboys’ 2024 rookie class is already off to a much better start than the 2023 class had. Mazi Smith was handcuffed by an inexplicable decision to have him drop weight. Luke Schoonmaker’s pre-existing foot injury limited him. DeMarvion Overshown’s pre-season injury derailed his season …
Many probably won’t agree with me on this take, because we all love to see six, seven and eight yard gains on every single rushing attempt. Yet the ground game Sunday against the best defense in football was not flashy, but it worked. The Cowboys ran the football a total of 25 times; the knee down …
It is hard to believe we are just one day away from the Dallas Cowboys Week 1 matchup with the Cleveland Browns. It’s been a long off-season, and this will be a long game against one of the toughest defenses in the NFL. Dallas heads into this season opener as the underdogs on the road. Overcoming …
The Dallas Cowboys front office is neither quick nor prudent when signing superstars to new deals. Dak Prescott is the latest player to learn this is not a quick process. Fans witnessed this during the negotiation of CeeDee Lamb’s contract. Both sides engaged in continuous back-and-forth discussions throughout the offseason until reaching an agreement just before …
Game week is here, and as the Cowboys start the regular season Sunday against the Cleveland Browns. This team is going to need everyone to make an impact and get off to a hot start to make everyone believe if they can take out the NFL’s best defense, they can take out anyone. One player who …
The offseason departure of franchise legend, Tyron Smith, opened up a massive need at left tackle in Dallas. Once the draft rolled around, the front office’s top priority was filling that need, and they tapped former Oklahoma Sooner, Tyler Guyton to do it. This move was met with some fan criticism, and admittedly, some of my …
Now that all teams have cut down their training camp and preseason rosters to just 53, over 1,000 players have been sent to free agency. Some players were claimed via waivers, vested veterans were signed outright, and others remained in the free agent pool. That doesn’t end the roster building. Teams must now fill up their …
With three rookie starters taking the field next week against the Cleveland Browns, there has been a ton of focus on the 2024 Cowboys draft class, and for good reason. What we may be forgetting, however, is that the 2023 draftees have an even larger importance this season. Last season, Dallas saw perhaps their worst draft …
By the end of the 2019 NFL season, budding superstars Dalvin Cook and Ezekiel Elliott finished fourth and fifth in rushing touchdowns, and combined for nearly 2,500 yards; a backfield with the two of them would have been unstoppable. Now, the Dallas Cowboys running back room has made that a reality. The only problem is, we …
The Dallas Cowboys continue to shock us with the sudden and uncharacteristic aggressiveness they have displayed over the past few weeks. This time, they have added a 4x Pro Bowler to the running back room to compete for a job. Dalvin Cook, the long-time Minnesota Viking and one-year player for the New York Jets, has finally …
This offseason has been somewhat of a roller-coaster ride for the Dallas Cowboys and its fanbase, alike. It started quietly, with the patented Stephen Jones one-year deals for aging veterans phase. A great draft followed, but the Cowboys remained quieter than usual afterward. The fanbase grew restless, angry with the refusal of the front office to …
The Dallas Cowboys completed their annual roster cuts, and some of the players released surprised fans. Alongside the Cowboys, every team in the NFL trimmed its rosters, resulting in the departure of several talented players. With the release of these players, the Cowboys now have the opportunity to consider new acquisitions, particularly at the running back …
The NFL roster cutdown deadline is today. Teams are required to submit their final 53-man rosters to NFL headquarters by 4pm, and it’s going to be a mad scramble. Several teams have already begun to trim their rosters ahead of the deadline, but at the end of the day, 1,184 players will hit the waiver wire …
For all the Dak Prescott, CeeDee Lamb, and running back talk, the Cowboys defense may be the thing that makes or breaks their 2024 campaign. After all, it was a 40+ points allowed defensive meltdown that ended their playoff hopes in January. Things must be different in Dallas this time around, and with new Defensive Coordinator, …
Another day, another example of the Cowboys’ offseason failures killing them once the season rolls around. This time, it came at the hands of an injury to superstar Cornerback, DaRon Bland. Time and time again this offseason, Dallas got in their own way. They say they don’t have money to spend, but that’s only because they …
The Dallas Cowboys preseason has come to a close, and the story of the preseason has taken many twists and turns. The front office’s inability to secure contract extensions for star players has been the primary story of the offseason and preseason games. Fans have watched the team sign unknown players, past their prime stars, and …
Over the last couple of weeks, the Dallas Cowboys free agent pursuit has really picked up. No, you’re not dreaming, and I’m not kidding. Since August 1st, the front office has signed a few players who could become really important to the defense this season. When you add in these recent signings with Dallas’ moves in …
The Dallas Cowboys have landed back in Texas after a productive training camp and preseason in Oxnard, California. I feel for the players and coaches. Weeks of beautiful California weather are behind them, and the oven that is Texas awaits. It has been hotter than a pair of black cleats left in the sun before a …
Training camp for the Dallas Cowboys in Oxnard, California has officially wrapped up, and the team has already landed back home in Texas. It was a long few weeks of evaluation for the Cowboys’ coaches and executives, and it’s time to start thinking about what the final roster will look like at the deadline next week. …
The Dallas Cowboys are nearing the end of the preseason, a crucial period where some players must prove themselves. Some strive to earn a spot on the roster, while others focus on disproving doubters during the regular season. As a fan, you can look at the team and draw your own conclusions on which players you …
