The Dallas Cowboys will play a football game on Thursday. Sure, just preseason, but still a game. It will mark the first bit of football action for America’s Team since their season ended at the hands of the New York Giants, although the season really ended during the first contest against the G-Men in 2020 when Dak Prescott was injured.
It is important to keep proper context with this week’s contest as it is only the Pro Football Hall of Fame game which precedes the rest of the preseason for the league as a whole.
