The Dallas Cowboys have named six captains for the 2025 season.
Brian Schottenheimer announced the news on Sunday (Wednesday for the team as they play on Thursday this week) and the team officially has two on each side of the ball.
Dak Prescott and CeeDee Lamb will lead the offense, Osa Odighizuwa and Donovan Wilson are the defensive captains while Brandon Aubrey and C.J. Goodwin will serve as the point of leadership for special teams.
This is obviously the first year in which Brian Schottenheimer is the Cowboys’ head coach and he appears to be approaching this thing, the team captains, differently than his predecessor. You may have forgotten that Mike McCarthy elected to have weekly captains which is an interesting system, but obviously there are multiple ways to go about this whole thing.
It stands to reason that with permanent captains the Cowboys will return to having the players wear the logos on their jerseys. Kudos to the 2025 Dallas Cowboys captains. May they lead the team ot high levels of success.
