DeMarvion Overshown full go for Cowboys opener vs. Browns: 'I'm ready to strap 'em up'

FRISCO, TX — When the Dallas Cowboys step foot into Cleveland Browns Stadium on Sept. 8, it will mark the single biggest moment in the football life of DeMarvion Overshown. The East Texas native that grew up idolizing America’s Team will, for the first time ever, take the field for an NFL regular season game with the Star on his helmet.

It's all made that much more poignant by the events of 2023, when the former Longhorn went from flying high after getting the nod as the team's third-round pick in April to suffering the worst injury of his life by way of a torn ACL in August that forced him into a redshirt season.

"I feel great," said Overshown through his trademark ear-to-ear smile. "Just making it to the season healthy is a plus, so we're already doing better than last year."

Good news. Let's see what the kid has. I worry there will be some over aggressiveness and losing his responsibility on misdirection and the such, but I think it will be offset by him flying around and making plays. Very excited to see him in a real game finally

Looking forward to watching this young player excel. Go Cowboys

 

[Bagman]

I hope his enthusiasm doesn't result in a lot of missed tackles. Sometimes he flies around a little too fast.

Brad Sham told me he needs a hip replacement.

[Proof]

deferred satisfaction. been waiting to see this kid suit up

 

[Ranching]

Hook 'Em!!

 

[Kingofholland]

Definitely one of the players I'm most excited to see in action.

 

[Coogiguy03]

Just don't go out there like a wild man with all those emotions and over think things and take yourself out of the game. Play hard, make those plays we know you can make, and ball out young man!!!

 

[Mr_437]

Good for him, to finally be able to play in his first real NFL game. DeMo should be a missle by mid-season.

Bras Sham needs a gut replacement.

 

[rambo2]

Seek and destroy.

 

[KJJ]

We’ll see how he does with all the practices he’s missed. Just hope he’s not one of those players that always comes up with an injury.

Just in case...

Overshown looks so impressive when he plays. The speed and power.

I’m excited to see him in a real game finally.

Brad Sham told me he needs a hip replacement.

next it will be an amputation

 

[ChuckA1]

next it will be an amputation

But I'm sure that's only one leg. He'll be fine.

 

[RedLine]

I hope he is as good as he thinks he is. He talks a good game and is very confident in his abilities. I want to see all of that on the field. Personally, I think he will struggle at this level.
