The Dallas Cowboys rookie minicamp is in the books, and now the team will turn its attention to OTAs before heading out to Oxnard, California, for training camp in late July.
It is the time of year when we look at and overanalyze the roster while waiting to see who will ultimately survive the final cuts.
The Cowboys like to keep their cards close to their chest, but there is still plenty of speculation about how things will play out. So let’s take a look around the web at some of the latest Cowboys news to see what the football world is saying.
Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy is excited to have veteran running back Ezekiel Elliott back in Big D. While he may not be the same player he was when he was the team’s bellcow back during his first stint, McCarthy believes Zeke can help the team.
McCarthy threw out an interesting, hilarious quote when discussing why he’s excited to have Elliott back in town.
One of the biggest questions surrounding the Cowboys this offseason is the future of star wide receiver CeeDee Lamb. Lamb is coming off of an All-Pro year and seeking a contract extension.
Last season, Lamb hauled in a league-leading 135 catches for 1,749 yards and 12 touchdowns. He broke Michael Irvin’s franchise record for receptions and receiving yards in a single season.
Unfortunately, a contract extension is not imminent, and Cowboys Executive Vice President Stephen Jones could not provide any substantial update.
With the news that streaming giant Netflix could be landing one or two Christmas Day games, there has been plenty of speculation about who could play in the exclusive games. Of course, if you want to draw people to a streaming platform why wouldn’t you try to get the biggest brand in the sport?
