Update’s: Beebe full participant on Thurs. – DallasCowboys.com
The Cowboys could be getting their starting center back in week nine.
4:05 p.m. — After being a limited participant for the entirety of last week, Cowboys C Cooper Beebe (ankle) was a full participant in Dallas’ Thursday practice.
Beebe was close to returning to the lineup last week, and is now still on track to make his return to the lineup for the Cowboys on Monday night against the Cardinals, putting Dallas’ starting five offensive linemen on the field for the first time since Week 2.
Linebacker DeMarvion Overshown (knee) was limited as he enters the second week of his three-week return to practice window, and exited practice during the media’s viewing period with team training staff. Overshown later returned to practice and there’s no concern about any long-term additional injury issues.
5 players Cowboys could consider trading before the November 4 deadline – Brian Martin, Blogging the Boys
The Cowboys should not be scared to sell at the deadline.
A veteran pass rusher who had 10.5 QB sacks last year with the Commanders, Dante Fowler could be an intriguing trade option for teams around the league who don’t want to pay a premium price. The 31-year-old has been a rotational player with the Cowboys this year, playing 37.75% of the teams defensive snaps so far this season. So far through the first eight weeks of the season he’s only accumulated one QB sack and hasn’t been the impact player Dallas was likely hoping for. If traded, the Cowboys’ pass rush production probably wouldn’t change much.
The trade deadline is almost here.
Jets OLB Jermaine Johnson II (contract expires after 2026) Depending on where you look, the buzz around the New York Jets and what they plan to do around the trade deadline varies. But if they decide to move off some of their more talented pieces to acquire draft capital, the Cowboys should see what the price is for Jermaine Johnson II. Quinnen Williams isn’t a likely option to get moved even if the Jets start selling, but Johnson could make sense as one New York would offload. Since a breakout Pro Bowl campaign in 2023, he’s dealt with injuries that have limited him to just seven games in the last two seasons. But given where the Cowboys are in finding help on the edge, taking a swing on Johnson while his price is low could prove fruitful.
It also doesn’t hurt that Johnson has experience with Cowboys defensive line coach Aaron Whitecotton who coached for the Jets last season.
The Cowboys need more from rookie running back Jaydon Blue.
Dallas Cowboys fans hoped fifth-round rookie running back Jaydon Blue could exceed the expectations of being a Day 3 pick and rise as a significant weapon on offense early in his career.
So far, he hasn’t. Heading into Week 9, Blue hasn’t even won the backup job behind Javonte Williams. Not even veteran Miles Sanders landing on season-ending Injured Reserve has translated into him being the unquestioned RB2 in Dallas
According to Cowboys head coach Brian Schottenheimer, Blue still needs to show more consistency in games. Prior to Sanders’ injury, Blue was a healthy scratch for the first four weeks of the season due to inconsistency. In Dallas’ Week 8 loss to the Denver Broncos, Blue rushed the ball a season-high eight times and showed more of the same. He averaged 3.6 yards per gain and had one fumble.
“Jaydon was inconsistent in the game,” Schottenheimer told reporters on Wednesday. “He did some really good things, and there were some other things that he’s got to do at a higher level. The fumble was a good hit, but he needs to hold on to the ball.”
Like the Broncos, Kyler Murray has been the Cowboys boogeyman for a while now.
The Dallas Cowboys play Monday Night football this week back at home at Jerry World, a place where Kyler Murray has NEVER lost a football game.
Murray is a perfect 9-0 at AT&T Stadium.
He has not played the last two games for the Cardinals, but after they had their bye week, is on track to be ready to go against Dallas this coming Monday.
Not a great sign for the Dallas defense, they have made every single quarterback that has played them look like the MVP of the league, and Murray has yet to lose at AT&T Stadium.
