Cowboys' Brian Schottenheimer confirms competition at left tackle position

Dallas Cowboys offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer announced a competition for the left tackle position during OTAs on June 4, 2026. Tyler Guyton and Nate Thomas are vying for the role, with Schottenheimer indicating that Guyton has shown promise but must earn the position. The Cowboys had previously experimented with Tyler Smith potentially moving from left guard to tackle, but Schottenheimer's comments suggest a commitment to the existing setup.
