Brian Schottenheimer secured his first NFL preseason win as the head coach of the Dallas Cowboys, defeating the Atlanta Falcons 31-13 on Saturday. Now, the Cowboys are starting to prepare for the regular season opener, trimming their roster down to 53 players.

The Cowboys are looking to bounce back from a disappointing 7-10 season that went off the rails long before quarterback Dak Prescott was lost to injury midseason. New head coach Brian Schottenheimer gets his first crack at commanding an entire team after spending the last three seasons as the offensive coordinator for Mike McCarthy.

The Cowboys have until 3 p.m. Tuesday to finalize what their roster will look like to open the 2025 season. Dallas started to make some moves Sunday, starting with their expected release of La’el Collins. The veteran offensive lineman notably rejoined the Cowboys in camp as the team battled some key injuries.
