Who strengthened their argument to make the Cowboys' roster? Here are our takeaways from the final preseason game against the LA Chargers.
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Ryan Flournoy catches a touchdown pass under pressure from Los Angeles Chargers cornerback Matt Hankins in the first half of an NFL preseason football game Saturday at AT&T Stadium.don’t have that luxury. This is a game that can determine if a veteran continues his career or a new player gets to start one.It is fair to say a player already in the mix for one of those spots could strengthen his argument.
The young quarterback threw five picks, one in the end zone in the third quarter, a pick-six in the fourth and another in the end zone to end the game. On a third-and-goal from the 9-yard line in the first half, he dumped it short over the middle giving the Cowboys no chance to score the touchdown. He dumped another short pass over the middle on a third-and-15 later in the half, again with no shot of picking up the first.
The team’s sixth-round pick had three catches for 30 yards and a touchdown. He scored against the Raiders as well and is a very good blocker.The question: Has Flournoy done enough to convince the coaches to keep six wide receivers on the final roster? If he has, that spot will likely come from the tight ends room, reducing their number to three.
