Cowboys face roster decisions ahead of final preseason games
Summary

The Dallas Cowboys approach their final two preseason games with roster cuts looming. While most of the roster is set, standout performances could impact decision-making for positions like outside linebacker, running back, and quarterback. Players such as Marist Liufau must shine amid a crowded edge rusher group, while Jaydon Blue seeks to improve after a lackluster camp. Joe Milton has made strides in securing the QB2 spot, but must maintain consistency to keep his position. Roster decisions will be critical in the coming days as the team finalizes its 53-man roster.
