Cowboys Already Have a Player to Watch in Training Camp
One player is already stealing the show as training camp continues.
Tyler Guyton, once a first-round draft pick, faces an uncertain future as the Dallas Cowboys' starting left tackle. After a mixed 2025 season, he is competing with Nathan Thomas for the starting position, a challenge that was clearly communicated by head coach Brian Schottenheimer. However, Guyton's dedication seems to be paying off as he has been the primary beneficiary of first-team reps during minicamp.
Offensive coordinator Klayton Adams and fellow offensive lineman Tyler Smith have both lauded Guyton's impressive progress. While early praise is encouraging, it remains to be seen if this momentum will translate to the regular season. Last year, Guyton demonstrated glimpses of his potential, but also showcased the typical growing pains associated with playing such a challenging position.
Dallas' offensive line is reliant on reliable play from the left side, particularly in protecting the quarterback. If Guyton improves, it would certainly bolster the team's confidence in their pass protection, open up opportunities in the running game, and reduce concerns about defensive pressure off the edge. However, the Cowboys' season is far from decided, and Guyton's future at left tackle remains to be determined.
