The Dallas Cowboys currently only have one kicker on their 90-man roster, undrafted rookie Jonathan Garibay out of Texas Tech. The Cowboys are likely to add another kicker before training camp begins at the end of July. Dallas could re-sign Chris Naggar, who was released before rookie minicamp in the spring, but he has kicked in only one NFL game. Garibay has shown a strong leg, making multiple kicks from 50 yards during offseason practices, but he also had his misses from 50-plus yards. "You can definitely get a feel for his ability," head coach Mike McCarthy said. "... He's off to a good start. He's just young." Garibay missed just one of his 16 field-goal attempts in college last year and was a first-team All-Big 12 pick, but fantasy managers will want to avoid him if he ends up as the Cowboys primary kicker entering Week 1.
The Dallas Cowboys and tight end Dalton Schultz aren't close to working out a long-term contract extension. Current market conditions could compel the Cowboys to wait it out. Schultz will play the 2022 season on a $10.93 million franchise tag if an extension isn't worked out by July 15, and he could face the possibility of being tagged again next year for $13.12 million. Last year, quarterback Dak Prescott had a 124.1 passer rating on throws that targeted Schultz, completing 76 of 97 attempts (78.4%) for 797 yards, eight touchdowns and one interception. The 25-year-old continues to improve and had 78 receptions for 808 yards and eight touchdowns in 17 games last year for the Cowboys. With receiver Amari Cooper now gone and Michael Gallup (knee) a question mark for the start of the season, Schultz becomes an even bigger part of Dallas' offense.
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver James Washington (foot) doesn't believe he'll miss the beginning of training camp. He also thought he'd be ready for minicamp, but Washington sat out during that due to injury. The Cowboys are unsure if Michael Gallup (knee) is going to be ready to begin the regular season. That being said, Washington has a chance to be a top-3 receiver in this offense to kickoff the 2022 campaign. He could certainly create some noise with the Cowboys likely to be limited on options to begin the year. Fantasy managers will have to wait and see if Washington suits up for training camp before getting too excited.
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb (hamstring) was forced to miss minicamp due to injury. However, the Cowboys have downplayed the injury and believe he'll be ready for the beginning of training camp. The Cowboys are without three of their top four wideouts right now, but luckily there is plenty of time before the season begins. The plan is for Lamb to workout with quarterback Dak Prescott in July. The organization mentioned he likely would've practiced if it was the regular season. That being said, it sounds like the team is being extra cautious with their stud wideout. Fantasy managers shouldn't have anything to worry about right now.
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver James Washington (foot) said that he expects to be ready for training camp at the end of July after missing organized team activities and mandatory minicamp this offseason due to a sore foot tendon. Washington was wearing a protective boot on his foot in late May, but he has ditched that and should be ready to go for the regular season, barring setbacks. However, the 26-year-old has missed valuable repetitions with his new team this offseason. He could have a significant role early in the season if Michael Gallup (knee) isn't ready to go, but Washington could also be battling rookie Jalen Tolbert for targets behind No. 1 wideout CeeDee Lamb.
