Now that’s Ezekiel Elliott’s return is official (right down to his jersey number), what does it all mean for the Cowboys backfield? And what’s Elliott’s role really going to be? There’s one aspect to his game- that could potentially be huge for the Cowboys offense in 2024- that no one is talking about. And make no mistake about who will actually determine the success (or not) of the Dallas ground game this coming season.
Elsewhere, prepare to be wowed by the early comparisons that second-round defensive end Marshawn Kneeland is drawing, and get to know fifth-round steal Caelen Carson now, before he’s the next Cowboys cornerback to blow up in a big way. Also in News and Notes, we’re revealing the jersey numbers for this year’s draft class, we’re looking ahead to the 2025 draft for names to remember, and we’re mulling over what an 18-game regular season schedule would really look like, both on the calendar and to the bubble players who would be losing preseason exposure. And we take an educated stab at when the NFL will release the 2024 slate of games.
