Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader Grabs Attention With Preseason Photo
Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader Grabs Attention With Preseason Photo originally appeared on The Spun. A stunning Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader turned heads with her preseason photo ahead of the 2025 regular season. The Cowboys lost to the Rams, 31-21, on Saturday night. Most of the Cowboys' top players did not play. However, Dallas still had some nice moments, including a touchdown pass from backup quarterback Joe Milton. Milton, however, struggled in the rest of the contest, though some of his wide receivers stood out, according to the Dallas Cowboys' team website. If not for the struggles of Joe Milton, Flournoy would've had a breakout game against the Rams that would've potentially included two touchdowns and a lot of yardage, to boot. His ability to separate and run routes was put on full display, putting defenders in a blender on at least two occasions, but Milton was unable to get him a more accurate ball — it sailing on both occasions. If Flournoy keeps this up, however, given how outstanding his film will look from the preseason opener, he'll continue to get opportunities in the next two preseason outings … and maybe beyond. While the Cowboys struggled on the field, one of their team cheerleaders stood out off of it. A stunning Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader went viral during the course of the 2025 preseason game, standing out on Instagram. "ten days away 💙," they said, highlighting their first home game of the 2025 preseason schedule. The Cowboys, meanwhile, have work to do heading into the 2025 season, as they remain questionable in many areas. Dallas' first-year head coach, Brian Schottenheimer, will need a lot of improvement in key areas heading into the fall.

2nd-year sixth-round pick is Cowboys WR sleeper with chance to shine
Ryan Flournoy was drafted in round 6 pick 216 in the 2024 draft class. He scored a 9.89 #RAS out of a possible 10.00. This ranked 38 out of 3402 WR from 1987 to 2024. No position will ofer more false positives in training camp than wide receiver. Early practices are in shells and without contact, tilting advantages grossly in the offense's direction. Running backs look like home run machines and pass catchers look like unstoppable forces. It seems every year a down-roster WR catches the eyes of Cowboys Nation early, only to disappoint late. It's why this year we identify a WR with the traits to see it through to the end. The reason so many WR prospects flame out in training camp is they don't have NFL caliber traits. Lots of players can look good in shells, in man coverage and against down-roster cornerbacks. But when the coverages start changing, the pads come on, and a better contingent of talent takes the field, the wheat and chaff separate. Ryan Flournoy is a player who may just be the wheat the Cowboys are looking for. Flournoy, drafted in the sixth round of the 2024 NFL draft, is the very definition of 'project player.' The athletically gifted prospect played in an extremely vanilla scheme in a fairly obscure football program. The Southeast Missouri product entered the league abnormally raw and showed steady progress as a rookie. His 10 receptions for 102 yards were actually more than Jalen Tolbert posted in his first season and a sign Flournoy is on the right trajectory for a breakout. Rookie Ryan Flournoy with the TD catch 🔥 Given the Cowboys' roster situation, it's extremely unlikely Flournoy will be vying for a starting spot in 2025. CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens have the top two spots locked down and Tobert is the favorite for WR3. The best Flournoy could hope to do is challenge third-year pro Jonathan Mingo for a role. Mingo is someone everyone's been waiting to pop since he joined the league and is now probably the anthesis of a sleeper since he's tasked with living up to the hype. Flournoy, the better special teams player of the two, is behind Mingo on the depth chart and it's not unreasonable to think he could jump him on the active roster some weeks. Dak going to rookie WR Ryan Flournoy on back to back plays Flournoy (9.89) and Mingo (9.86) have nearly identical Relative Athletic Scores so it's clear the Cowboys front office has a 'type' they scout for. They want developmental players to have an NFL skillset and Flournoy has that and then some. As much fun as it is to root for down-roster WRs like Jalen Brooks, Jalen Cropper, Kelvin Harmon, or Josh Kelly, they just don't have the same skillset Flournoy brings to the table which is why Flournoy is the sleeper to watch this summer in training camp.

Upcoming congressional forum will allow residents to voice concerns on federal cuts
SHREVEPORT, La. (KTAL/KMSS) — A statewide advocacy group is touring Louisiana cities and hosting congressional forums to address concerns about ongoing changes within the federal government. The group will host a public meeting for citizens to share their concerns this week. 10,000 Women Louisiana will join Indivisible North LA to welcome citizens for an open forum to discuss the rapid changes under the Trump Administration and cuts by the Department of Government Efficiency, Doge. Melissa Flournoy is a Shreveport native and former state representative, now the board chair of 10,000 Women Louisiana. She said the organization was initially founded by mothers concerned about their children leaving the state to find better employment opportunities. More Local News 'We're seeing our best and our brightest being lured away to other states,' Flournoy said. She will travel back to Shreveport this week to host the public meeting, at which citizens will be able to ask questions of elected officials. 'People have a lot of concerns and our elected officials need to hear from the voters. So we really are trying to create an opportunity for people to come out and listen to what people are concerned about and share their concerns in a non-partisan, non-denominational way,' Flournoy said. They will address the ongoing changes in Washington during the first 100 days of the Trump Administration and Doge's major cuts. 'I think there's a lack of transparency. There's so many cuts and so much information that's come out in this initial 100 days with cuts to major agencies, the Department of Education, cuts in health care, cuts to USAID. I just think there's a lot of folks not really sure what's going on. What we're hearing is fear of cuts to Medicare and Social Security, and access to health care, and how cuts will affect education and higher ed, and universities. So the idea is for citizens to share their concerns then we report back to our elected officials,' Flournoy said. The congressional forum will take place Thursday night from 6 to 8 p.m. at Grace Community Methodist Church, 9400 Ellerbe Road, Shreveport. You can register through the group's Facebook page.

Developer wins rezoning approval for Centene-owned land
Charlotte City Council has unanimously approved a rezoning petition that sets the stage for development of a prime piece of real estate in University City. Council members approved Atlanta-based Flournoy Development Group's petition during its April 21 zoning meeting. Flournoy filed the petition in September to rezone a nearly 52-acre site at 2200 One Electrolux Way and 10200 Claude Freeman Drive.

Its previous zoning was office institutional, conditional (O-1, CD), and single-family residential (RE-3, O). The property is currently owned by Centene Corp., which once planned an East Coast hub there. Read more here. VIDEO: Developer blames economy for drawn-out Uptown project
