Dallas Cowboys learn from preseason win over Seahawks after penalties
Summary

The Dallas Cowboys defeated the Seattle Seahawks in their first preseason game on August 17, 2026. Despite an initial struggle that included a long touchdown drive by Seattle and a quick three-and-out for Dallas, the Cowboys rebounded effectively on both sides of the ball. Player evaluations were crucial, revealing strong performances from tight end Michael Trigg and running back Jaydon Blue, who combined for 18 touches. However, pre-snap penalties remain a significant concern, with multiple infractions hampering their offense. Camden Brown showcased talent with two touchdown receptions, boosting his chances for a spot on the final roster.
