We are less than three weeks away from the Dallas Cowboys opening their 2023 NFL season at the New York Giants. But first, we have the final preseason game against the Las Vegas Raiders, and then the team has to make the cutdown to the initial 53-man roster the following Tuesday, August 29.
So what does this Saturday’s matchup mean? It is, after all, a last chance to evaluate players for the remaining roster spots. Also, given that they have been held out of both previous preseason games, it is the only chance for the starters to get some live action before things start to count.
