We break down the Dallas Cowboys depth chart with weekly updates about starters and backups during the 2024 NFL season.
The Dallas Cowboys current depth chart for the 2024 season is listed below. The team updates the starters and backups each week due to injuries and players getting promoted or demoted in playing time.
Week 10 Cowboys depth chart update
The Cowboys acquired wide receiver Jonathan Mingo and a seventh round pick from the Carolina Panthers in exchange for a fourth round pick. Mingo will be a backup on their wide receiver depth chart. The team released cornerback Andrew Booth to make room for Mingo.
Jerry Jones announced during a radio appearance that it’s likely the team will place quarterback Dak Prescott on injured reserve. The team had not placed him on IR as of Wednesday night, but a report came out suggesting Prescott could miss more than the minimum four games required for IR.
Game result: The Cowboys welcomed Micah Parsons back into the lineup. Linebacker DeMarvion Overshown suffered a non-contact injury in the second half. He thinks he’ll be OK, but word will come on Monday as to where things stand.
Ahead of the game, the team placed Dak Prescott on IR and started Cooper Rush in his place. Trey Lance replaced Rush in the lineup late in the game and it’s unclear what’s next at the QB position for the Cowboys the rest of this season. Prescott is expected to get season-ending surgery on his hamstring.
