There is optimism in the air over the last week for the Dallas Cowboys after finalizing more coaching staff positions, but there’s an interesting wrinkle in the latest hire… Rob Davis has never actually been a coach before.
Adam Rank of NFL.com put together an unsung hero list of the 2019 season. He chose one representative for each of the 32 NFL Teams. Find out why quarterback Dak Prescott was his choice and why RJ Ochoa of Blogging The Boys has a different take. For the first time since the 2018 NFL Draft, the Dallas Cowboys have a first-round pick. Todd Archer of ESPN explains how this year, it will come with some sizzle. With the NFL Pro Bowl Sunday, Jaylon Smith embraces his first shot after quite the journey to get there. This is today’s News and Notes.
Cowboys hire Rob Davis as assistant head coach :: ESPN
There’s not much information in the snippet from Rob Demovsky, but the crux of this is that Davis is a former player, who spent time in the Green Bay front office before moving to private business, where he was senior director of people and culture for Pierce Manufacturing.
He’s never spent time actually on the field as a coach, which makes this the most interesting hire of all of McCarthy’s staff.
What an interesting look training camp will be in Oxnard.
Here’s a full listing of the Cowboys coaching staff as it stands now.

Asst HC Rob Davis
OC Kellen Moore
DC Mike Nolan
Senior Defensive Asst George Edwards
ST John Fassel
Asst ST Matt Daniels
OL Joe Philbin
OL Asst Jeff Blasko

WR Coach Adam Henry
TE Coach Lunda Wells

NFL.com names Dak Prescott “unsung hero” of 2019 season :: Blogging The Boys
RJ Ochoa questions Adam Rank when he decided to list starting quarterback Dak Prescott as the Dallas Cowboys representative when it came to “unsung heroes” of the 2019 season.
.@adamrank named Dak Prescott as the "unsung hero" for the 2019 Dallas Cowboys.
Fair or nah? https://t.co/QP2ZyhlbPV

The Cowboys relied heavily on Prescott’s production to be competitive this past year but Ochoa thinks when it comes to being unsung he would have considered right tackle La’el Collins or defensive end Robert Quinn as candidates who really contributed heavily with a little less spotlight. When you are the quarterback of the Dallas Cowboys, it’s pretty hard to not be the center of attention when it comes to being a huge factor in the teams success.
Cowboys have first-round pick this year (unlike last year), it’s sure to have some sizzle :: ESPN
Archer explains that the 2019 NFL Draft for the Dallas Cowboys wasn’t very appealing. This due in part to the fact that the Cowboys did not even have a first round pick because of the trade to acquire wide receiver Amari Cooper from the Oakland Raiders. Sure that worked out well but after the first round, the Cowboys missed on a few and hit on a few less. That can change quite easily being that they hold the No. 17 selection in the 2020 NFL draft.
Defensive tackle Tristen Hill was inactive for more games than he actually played in. Due to a torn pectoral muscle, the Cowboys missed their chance to see anything from offensive lineman Connor McGovern. In the fourth round the Cowboys drafted Tony Pollard who showed glimpses of hope that he can be a true contributor to the offense but after that, nothing to get too excited about.

This year, the Cowboys hold the 17th overall pick in the first round and can go multiple directions.
After long road to Pro Bowl, Jaylon Smith calls the game a “Blessing” :: Pro Football Talk
Many NFL players don’t take the Pro Bowl seriously. Smith told the Dallas Morning News he considered this game a blessing.
The first-time Pro Bowler embraces this game whole heartedly considering the story he’s lived just to get here. Smith missed his entire rookie campaign due to his horrific knee injury he suffered in his final game at Notre Dame. After battling back to full health, and having quite the productive season, Smith was chosen to participate in the 2020 Pro Bowl when Luke Kuechly dropped out of the game via early retirement.
