The Cowboys have a star-studded offense with quarterback Dak Prescott, wideouts CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens, along with Javonte Williams as their first-choice running back. However, Dallas' defense will also need to tighten up if the team wants to make the playoffs in the upcoming season.

The Cowboys have high expectations for Revel Jr., and it will be interesting to see how the cornerback fares in his rookie year.

Dallas will open its 2025 season on the road against the Philadelphia Eagles on Sept. 4.
