Cowboys Headlines: Dak Prescott's 'Hail Mary' putt, Arch Manning rumors, run resurgence?

how well does the o-line know tyler trivia 🧐@Tee_sizzle_ | @TylerGuyton14 | @iamtylerbooker Dak Prescott has given fans his first long-distance highlight of the year, but this one came on the golf course. We've got the story of his monster putt coming up a little deeper in this recap of the day's Cowboys headlines, along with an interesting twist in the Arch Manning-to-Dallas conspiracy theory that won't be going away anytime soon. But we start with the ground game and a simple question: just how run-heavy will Brian Schottenheimer really get this season? The answer could, in part, depend on what one intriguing rookie does; we'll explain why Jaydon Blue's "red flags" could actually be the best thing he has going for him in the pros. Elsewhere, George Pickens has enraged his old Pittsburgh fanbase one final time; we'll share the reason he bailed on his own youth football camp and why Cowboys fans should be fine with it. Also, we've got D-line rankings, a look at O-line depth, a possibility to watch at cornerback later this summer, and the inspiring story of the most unlikely rookie the Cowboys will have in camp. All that, plus the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders continue their recent hot streak by stepping into the spotlight on late-night's biggest stage. How run heavy will Dallas really be? :: The Mothership Link Brian Schottenheimer has made it abundantly clear the Cowboys' offense will lean heavily on the rushing attack going forward. But the trio of Dak Prescott, CeeDee Lamb, and George Pickens have the capability to deploy a high-octane passing game. Heavier on the run than in recent years? Almost certainly (which will also help the play-action to be taken seriously), but don't expect a return to DeMarco Murray-esque levels of 30 carries per contest. Cowboys rookie's red flags could be the reason he becomes phenomenal as a pro :: Cowboys Wire Link If some scouts thought Jaydon Blue showed an impatient running style at Texas and a prioritization of big plays over ball security, it may be because his opportunities always seemed to be threatened by the Longhorns' plethora of backs. His low usage rate is certainly a red flag, but it also explains a lot and may even be his saving grace. He's got a good excuse for his low mileage; maybe the Cowboys simply saw something that other teams in the draft didn't. 2025 NFL defensive line rankings: T.J. Watt, Cam Heyward propel Steelers to No. 1 :: PFF Link The Cowboys' defensive line was one of the worst units against the run in 2024, but they saw their overall stats buoyed by Micah Parsons, Osa Odighizuwa, and a fierce pass rush. They rank 12th here but could finish even higher if they prove to be at least average against the run. Every NFL team's potential breakout player in 2025 includes Cowboys rookie :: Cowboys Wire Link Edge rusher Donovan Ezeiruaku has insane pass rush skills, and he may have been the best pure edge in the entire 2025 draft class. He won't be overburdened in his first season, though, as there's a deep rotation at the position. But he could rack up six sacks or more for the Cowboys by the time the year is over. Test your Tyler knowledge with the Cowboys O-line :: Dallas Cowboys Assessing Cowboys' OL reveals questions on edge, excess depth inside :: Cowboys Wire Link The O-line's center and guards are set, but everything beyond that is uncertain. Tyler Guyton needs to improve or he risks getting benched again this season. And Terence Steele has been merely average for all but one season of his career. The Cowboys do have some experience as depth, including Asim Richards, Nate Thomas, T.J. Bass, Brock Hoffman, Rob Jones, Saahdiq Charles, and Hakeem Adenji. Matt Waletzko may be facing a tough road to the 53-man roster, however, and rookie Ajani Cornelius is looking to just make a first impression. Pickens picks Prescott over promise to Pittsburgh kids: Cowboys WR cancels camp for new QB :: Cowboys Wire Link The mercurial wideout had said he would return to host his George Pickens Youth Football Camp in Pittsburgh this June, even after being traded to Dallas. But instead, he's working and bonding with his Cowboys teammates at the annual retreat organized by Dak Prescott. Camp registrants are livid; the event will be rescheduled and feature at least one current Steelers player. Dak Prescott sinks 65-foot bomb to win match against Good Good Golf—is this the Cowboys' year? :: Golf Digest Link The Cowboys QB has notched his first clutch win of 2025. Earlier this week, Prescott teamed up with his brother Tad and backup Will Grier on the links against the guys from Good Good Golf. With the match tied at five-under, Dak stepped up and drained an incredible 65-foot birdie putt for the walkoff. Recent Arch Manning speculation makes him likelier to wind up with the Dallas Cowboys when he declares for the NFL Draft :: A to Z Sports Link First, it's very much an extreme long shot, despite what the national media may push to generate buzz. But consider this: Manning has revealed he wants a real college experience, not just one year as the Texas starter. That means he'd be coming out in 2027... when technically, Dallas would have an escape clause in Prescott's contract. It wouldn't be pretty from a dead-money and cap standpoint, but it would be doable. And so the speculation will continue. Cowboys rookie Tyler Neville's inspiring story is one of hope, overcoming stacked odds :: Dallas Morning News Link Born deaf, having a metal bar inserted into his body to correct a sunken chest, living through Hodgkin's lymphoma, and dealing with a back surgery that required him to learn to walk again as a teen, the undrafted free agent has already overcome more than most in his life. Now the Harvard product is alongside the best tight ends in the game at TEU and trying to make the roster of the Dallas Cowboys. Cowboys 53-man roster projection: One spot left open for player not on current roster :: The Athletic Link If the Cowboys are to make another notable roster move between now and the season opener, cornerback is the best bet. This roster projection allows for the addition of a veteran like Stephon Gilmore. If they choose to stick with who they have, Andrew Booth is likely the fifth CB, behind DaRon Bland, Shavon Revel, Jr., Kaiir Elam, and Caelen Carson (with Trevon Diggs starting out on IR). The Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders appear on The Tonight Show :: D Magazine Link It's been a good week for America's Sweethearts. Season 2 of their Netflix show is a hit, they made national news by scoring a 400% pay raise for the upcoming season, and now they've performed on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon. After an audience member made the suggestion, six members of the squad hit the stage to rock their signature "Thunderstruck" routine.
