Cowboys to Assess La’el Collins for Offensive Line Depth

Dak Prescott has publicly backed Collins’s Friday session to shore up a line that has lost five starters to injury this week.

La'el Collins #71 of the Dallas Cowboys drops back to pass block during a game against the Jacksonville Jaguars at AT&T Stadium on October 14, 2018 in Arlington, Texas. The Cowboys defeated the Jaguars 40-7

Overview

  • The Cowboys have suffered injuries or early exits from five offensive linemen this week, including Tyler Guyton, Rob Jones, Matt Waletzko, Hakeem Adeniji and Tyler Smith.
  • Dallas has scheduled Collins for a workout on Friday in Oxnard, California, as part of its urgent evaluation of available depth options.
  • Collins started 71 of 74 games over three stints with the Cowboys before missing the 2024 season after his release from the Buffalo Bills.
  • Quarterback Dak Prescott told reporters that Collins is in the best shape of his life and said he hopes Collins “kills this workout.”
  • Camp workouts of veteran free agents let teams address immediate needs on short notice without committing to long-term contracts.
