Who is the most surprising person you think will make the Cowboys 53-man roster?
After a little over a week of the Cowboys’ 2025 training camp, we’ve already seen some ripples in this 91-man roster pond. Existing injury situations have been updated, some new ones have started, and players are making good and bad early impressions with their performance. With all of this info to work with, it’s a good time to check back in with our roster projection.
One of the hardest parts of this exercise is not to overreact to these first glimpses out of Oxnard. While some developments will carry through to September, some are just the buzz of the week. A reported camp rock star can find that the music stops fast with a bad preseason showing. Conversely, someone who hasn’t made much noise on the practice field can quickly earn points in those games. So this is still very much a process, and we’re only just getting going.
You can reference the last version of the projection if you want to see what’s changed from early last week. Mostly, it’s because of injuries. But we’ll address the revisions as we go.
