The Dallas Cowboys 2024 Preseason Games Starting Lineup (players most likely to have most snaps at each position):

QB Trey Lance
RB Deuce Vaughn
WR Jalen Tolbert
WR Jalen Brooks
WR Ryan Flournoy
TE Luke Schoonmaker
T Tyler Guyton
G T.J. Bass
C Cooper Beebe
G Nathan Thomas
T Asim Richards

DE Marshawn Kneeland
DT Justin Rogers
DT Mazi Smith
DE Sam Williams
LB DeMarvion Overshown
LB Marist Liufau
CB Eric Scott
CB Caelen Carson
CB Nahshon Wright
S Israel Mukuimu
S Juanveh Thomas

Key goals:

1. Evaluate the progress of Trey Lance, how close is he to being an NFL starter based on preseason performance?

2. Find a legitimate running mate for Zeke Elliot. Is Malik or Rico a real answer? Did the Cowboys make an UDFA steal at RB with Nathaniel Peat? Has Vaughn gained a significant amount of strength, enough to earn an appropriate number of carries?

3. Prepare O-line rookies for starting positions, develop cohesion. Evaluate the progress of Luke Schoonmaker and competition between Hendershot, Schoonmaker, Fant, and Spann-Ford.

4. Develop run defense using internal D-linemen and LBers. Determine reserve DB's among Scott, Wright, Thomas and Carson. Prepare rotation DE packages using Kneeland and Williams.

5. Adapt to any injury issues and maintain consistent improvement.
