Dallas Cowboys head coach Brian Schottenheimer told the media on Tuesday, June 16, that QB Dak Prescott will be limited in team drills. He said it's nothing to be concerned about.
Huddle Up: Prescott should be fine for the regular season, so fantasy players shouldn't worry about him missing any time. He still projects as a QB1 in 2026 and has the potential to lift everyone around him in the Cowboys' offense.

Dallas Cowboys WR George Pickens reported for the start of mandatory minicamp Monday, June 15.
Huddle Up: Pickens did sign his franchise tag tender earlier this offseason but has skipped most of the voluntary workouts. He will be playing for a contract again this season and should be able to post good numbers again as long as he stays healthy. He will be at least a No. 2 receiver in fantasy leagues.

Dallas Cowboys RB Jaydon Blue was praised for his work ethic during OTAs by head coach Brian Schottenheimer, and Schottenheimer believes Blue has become a different player.
Huddle Up: Blue appears focused on putting a lackluster rookie season behind him, and if he can secure the No. 2 running back role, he will at least be a valuable handcuff to Javonte Williams. Keep an eye on Blue's role in the Dallas backfield during training camp.

Dallas Cowboys WR CeeDee Lamb (personal reasons) is not practicing at the team's OTA session on Tuesday, June 9.
Huddle Up: Lamb projects to be one of the top options this year at the wide receiver position. Lamb is going to be the WR1 in 2026 for the Cowboys and beyond, and has a chance to be a top-five wide receiver by the end of the season.

Dallas Cowboys RB Jaydon Blue will compete with RB Malik Davis and RB Phil Mafah for the No. 2 running back job.
Huddle Up: Blue played sparingly as a rookie, but he has the speed to bring a big-play element to the Dallas offense. Of the players in the mix for the backup job, Blue probably has the most upside. Assuming he can secure the role, he will be worth stashing in most formats.

Dallas Cowboys WR George Pickens has been doing off-site workouts with QB Dak Prescott this offseason but has not been a regular at the club's optional workouts. He is seeking a contract extension but is not expected to engage in a lengthy holdout, in the opinion of ESPN.com's Jeremy Fowler.
Huddle Up: Pickens signed a $27 million franchise tag in April to remain in Dallas for at least one more season. The 25-year-old is coming off an outstanding 2025 campaign where he had 93 receptions for 1,429 yards and nine touchdowns. He should be viewed as a high-end WR2 option in all fantasy formats, with the potential to post WR1-type numbers in some weeks.

Dallas Cowboys WR Ryan Flournoy seems to be the leading candidate for the No. 3 receiver job entering training camp, in the opinion of DallasCowboys.com's Kurt Daniels.
Huddle Up: Flournoy is coming off a solid 2025 season but will be behind CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens on the depth chart and will see a limited number of targets during games. He can be a late round pick in fantasy leagues but will not be a weekly starting option unless Lamb or Pickens suffer an injury.

Huddle Up: It was reported that Pickens plans to sign the tender offer, but it seems like he has not signed at this time.

Dallas Cowboys WR George Pickens will reportedly have his franchise tag finalized this week, according to the Cowboys' director of player personnel and co-owner Stephen Jones.
Huddle Up: Pickens had a monster 2025 season, where he was a top-five fantasy wide receiver and averaged 17.2 fantasy points per game. As one half of a wide receiver tandem including CeeDee Lamb, Pickens was expected to receive a franchise tag or hit free agency, where he would see a robust market for his services. Now that he's expected to stay a Cowboy for at least this upcoming season, Pickens should be considered a low-end WR1 for fantasy purposes. He may not put up career-highs in all receiving statistics like Pickens did last season, but he has a stable floor of production plus an immense ceiling in a high-flying Dallas offense with Dak Prescott leading the charge.

Huddle Up: Pickens excelled in his first season in Dallas, and while the Cowboys would like to work out a long-term deal, there is a chance that Pickens could play on the franchise tag next season. As long as Pickens is back in Dallas in 2026, he should be a WR2 with WR1 upside.
