The Dallas Cowboys continue to prepare for the 2024 NFL season, and things are ramping up around The Star. This week, we have finalized the 53-man roster and practice squad, and all that's left is putting together a game plan for the Cleveland Browns.

Things are a bit calmer surrounding the team after the CeeDee Lamb contract extension, but with the Cowboys there is always some drama so people are waiting to see what happens next.

In the meantime, let's check out some headlines making the rounds in Cowboys Nation.

The Dallas Cowboys are adding four-time Pro Bowler Dalvin Cook to the practice squad. It's the perfect time for a Throwback Thursday post with the two Cowboys veteran running backs doing a jersey swap from a previous meeting between Dallas and the Minnesota Vikings.

My, how time flies.
