The Dallas Cowboys are set to begin their training camp in Oxnard, CA, on July 28, with a sense of calm surrounding the team. This marks a departure from previous years, which were often marred by drama and controversy.
Key Additions and Expectations
This season, the team has made key additions, including defensive coordinator Christian Parker and first-round picks Caleb Downs and Malachi Lawrence. The Cowboys are looking to rebuild their defense while maintaining their high-powered offense, which will be crucial in their quest for a winning season.
Wide receiver George Pickens, who had a breakout season in Dallas after being traded from Pittsburgh last offseason, is expected to participate in camp and play out the season on the franchise tag. The two sides cannot negotiate a long-term deal until the regular season ends.
The Cowboys finished with 7 wins for the second straight season, and the team is trying to return to the playoffs for the first time since 2024. The upcoming training camp will include a month in California, with joint practices with the Los Angeles Rams and the New Orleans Saints in August, before returning to North Texas to prepare for the final preseason game.
