The Cowboys are finally back in action on Saturday, lining up for the first time since they were eliminated from the playoffs back in January. The club has traveled back to Dallas to take on the Jacksonville Jaguars to open up their preseason campaign. While training camp still isn’t officially done, the club will return to Oxnard following the game, there’s a lot to takeaway from the first three weeks and look forward to with America’s Team.
From the hype around running back Deuce Vaughn to the rise of wide receiver Jalen Brooks, young players are under the microscope. The Cowboys’ defensive stars have shined throughout camp, but it’s a big three week stretch coming up for Dallas as the regular season is less than a month away.
Back in the saddle as the Cowboys play-caller, McCarthy feels at home in the role again after making a living doing so in Green Bay. More from the Dallas head coach, players to watch in the preseason opener and positions of concern in the first game day news and notes of the new campaign.
