The Dallas Cowboys face the Washington Commanders on September 18, 2026, with a focus on improving their offensive strategy following a lackluster performance in their season opener against the Giants. Key players for Week 2 include WR CeeDee Lamb and TE Jake Ferguson on the offensive side, while DT Quinnen Williams and OLB Donovan Ezeiruaku are expected to fortify the defense.
