The inconsistent outing from Trey Lance is highlighted as we look at the winners and losers from the Dallas Cowboys preseason finale.
There's no reason to be concerned about the record since that's not what matters in the preseason. Instead, it's all about getting their younger players some experience while also figuring out who will make the 53-man roster.Dallas had several players stand out which will make the decision tough. As for this game, let's take a look at which players stand out as winners and losers.
Following a solid drive that ended with a field goal for Dallas, their defense surrendered a touchdown in just 12 seconds. Wide receiver Derius Davis took a reverse toss from quarterback Easton Stick and ripped off a 70-yard touchdown.While the entire defense deserves blame for being unprepared, it was Viliami Fehoko who had the best chance of stopping the play. He started going inside, sold on the fake handoff, but still was in position to stop Davis.
Booth laid out to attempt to break up the pass but wasn't able to catch up to Fehoko after giving up several yards early in the route.. That opened the door for Booth to earn more playing time early in the season, but those chances took a hit with this gaffe.Dallas Cowboys cornerback Eric Scott Jr. / Tim Heitman-USA TODAY Sports
That might have given him confidence as he performed much better in the second game against the Las Vegas Raiders. In the finale, he again showed why Dallas moved up in the 2023 NFL Draft to bring him in. On a first-and-goal, Scott was in single coverage with Brendan Rice and broke up a pass in the corner of the end zone.
