Cowboys Headlines: McClay talks Pickens future, who is next after Dak?

Questions have mounted about what the Cowboys' 2026 season will look like, and those answers will soon slowly begin to reveal themselves. The outlook for Dallas feels unlike previous years, but predicting exactly what this team will become varies depending on the outlet.

If Dallas is to make good on the optimism that surrounds the team, quarterback Dak Prescott will need to avoid the even-year injury jinx that has plagued him the past few seasons. A healthy Prescott alongside wideout George Pickens gives defensive coordinators nightmares and perhaps the pairing will go beyond the 2026 season.

Before the plane wheels go up en route to Oxnard for camp, a few Cowboys rookies got together at the Great Wolf Lodge for some charity work. While the rookies will be leaned on heavily this year for support, the key to a successful season may depend on edge Rahsan Gary. Is he the most important Cowboys this side of Prescott?

While the Cowboys wait to board their planes, a few teams have already opened camp. Carolina received some devastating news as their sack leaded, Nic Scourton, tore his ACL on the first day of practice. On the flip side, Raiders rookie quarterback and first overall pick Fernando Mendoza signed his rookie deal just in time to report to his first camp.

Around the NFL, the Ravens released rookie quarterback and Heisman runner-up Diego Pavia. Free agent receiver Tyreke Hill made headlines after revealing he has "No Power" in his surgically repaired knee. The NFL top 100 list reveal rolls on with a pair of former All-Pros dropping in the rankings from their previous marks.
