For the first time this summer, the Dallas Cowboys faced an opponent other than themselves on Tuesday afternoon. Dallas welcomed the Los Angeles Rams, whom they will face in their preseason opener on Saturday night, for a joint practice between the two squads.
While it wasn’t quite full contact between the two squads, it was very exciting to see the 2025 Cowboys face off against another team, at least in some capacity, for the first time. As usual during these joint practices, the competitiveness was high on both sides.
A few individual Cowboys put together performances that stood out, but the star of the day for the Cowboys side was the wide receiver room. CeeDee Lamb, George Pickens, and KaVontae Turpin separated themselves from the pack as all three made some big plays during the scrimmage.
After taking a big hit during the first couple of plays of the practice, Turpin bounced back in a big way, making multiple plays downfield. The wideout showed his rare combination of speed and elusiveness and just how much of a threat he can be with the ball in his hands.
Next, it was Pickens’ turn. The newly acquired wideout followed up Monday’s great practice with another strong performance, showing just how much of a game-changer he will be for Dallas’ offense.
You knew at some point during the scrimmage, All-Pro CeeDee Lamb was going to take over. The inevitable happened during the second half of the practice, as Lamb made play after play, consistently beating the Rams’ secondary.
And we can’t forget about this Jalen Brooks play.
