The Dallas Cowboys are in the process of finalizing their initial 53-man roster, with a deadline set for 6 PM ET on August 30. This roster will reflect the culmination of their offseason activities, including free agency, the draft, OTAs, minicamps, training camp, and three preseason games.
The term 'initial' is used because NFL teams often make adjustments after the roster is set. Potential trades may occur, and teams can claim players who are eligible for waiver wire claims. Additionally, there is the possibility of signing free agents who do not need to go through waivers. As roster moves unfold, updates will be provided on cuts and other pertinent news.
As of now, no cuts have been reported. The Cowboys are expected to continue monitoring player performances and make decisions accordingly as they prepare for the upcoming season. Further updates will be available as the situation develops, including tracking the practice squad once it is established.
For fans looking ahead, the Cowboys are currently favored by 2.5 points in their Week 1 matchup against the New York Giants, according to NFL odds from FanDuel.
