Brian Baldinger outlines expectations for rookie receiver Camden Brown
Summary

Wide receiver Camden Brown enters his first NFL regular season as the lone undrafted free agent to secure a spot on the 2026 Dallas Cowboys roster. After standing out during the preseason, including a performance against the Seattle Seahawks, Brown faces the challenge of maintaining his place on the 53-man squad. Analyst Brian Baldinger, a former undrafted Cowboys lineman, emphasized that Brown must consistently capture the attention of coaching staff through effort and technical mastery in every practice. While other undrafted rookies like Jordan Hudson and Michael Trigg were assigned to the practice squad, Brown moves forward in the active rotation. Baldinger noted that longevity for undrafted players relies on a high-intensity approach to daily repetitions, a mindset he credited for his own professional career in Dallas.
