SANTA CLARA, Calif. – While many more starters are expected to play in Sunday’s preseason game with the 49ers, this game is still more about the individual evaluation.
The DallasCowboys.com staff highlights eight players worth watching closely at Sunday night from Levi’s Stadium and will revisit these same players following the game.
Rob Phillips
Geoff Swaim: Backup tight end James Hanna is still recovering from a sprained knee, so the rookie Swaim should get plenty of playing time against the 49ers. The Cowboys could have taken their chances on signing Swaim after the draft, but they valued him on their board too much and actually traded a 2016 sixth-round pick to the 49ers to move back into the seventh round and grab the University of Texas tight end.
