The first mandatory minicamp of the Brian Schottenheimer era in Dallas begins on Tuesday. Here's five things to keep an eye on over the course of the Cowboys' three-day practices together. 

Micah Parsons plans to report to the Cowboys' mandatory three-day minicamp, and a TikTok trend turned into a heartfelt message from Brian Schottenheimer.

After decades of working in the NFL as an assistant and coordinator, Brian Schottenheimer finally has his chance as a head coach with the Cowboys. Even though it's his biggest shot yet, he's not changing who he is and is committed to building the best culture in sports with the hopes that it serves as the building block to Dallas' first Super Bowl since 1996.  

After visiting practice during the Cowboys' Alumni Day, Michael Irvin came away impressed by what new head coach Brian Schottenheimer is building.

The NFL has officially notified the Cowboys of key dates such as final roster cuts and the 2025 trade deadline, and they've marked their calendar accordingly.

There are several reasons Terence Steele could regain top form, and Brian Schottenheimer believes it'll all come together for the most experienced player on the offensive line.

Cowboys legends were the latest to see how Brian Schottenheimer and his staff are changing the culture in Dallas, and Stephen Jones and the front office love the approach they've taken up to this point. 

Second year Cowboys linebacker Marist Liufau is the next of many Cowboy players who are bought into Brian Schottenheimer's "infectious" energy, and is looking to contribute to Matt Eberflus' defensive philosophy that emphasizes takeaways. 

As OTAs pass and minicamp approaches, with training camp and the preseason to follow, the addition of Conor Riley bodes well for what Deuce Vaughn is trying to accomplish in 2025.

There was much to watch during yesterday's OTA workout, writes Mickey Spagnola in this week's Mick Shots, including Sam Williams' next step, the play of Kenneth Murray, George Pickens pickin' and more.

The Cowboys held their final OTA practice open to the media on Tuesday ahead of the team beginning mandatory minicamp next week. Here's what stood out to the staff at DallasCowboys.com. 

With Jourdan Lewis no longer in Dallas, the Cowboys are looking for someone to step up and potentially take on slot corner duties, and Juanyeh Thomas is a prime candidate.

Cowboys COO and co-owner Stephen Jones spoke the media on Tuesday briefly about Micah Parsons' contract situation, and the state of Dallas' cornerback room with multiple players still recovering from injury. 

It's unknown when the Cowboys will be able to welcome Trevon Diggs back to the field in 2025, but Brian Schottenheimer gave an optimistic update on the All-Pro's recovery path.

George Pickens and Dante Fowler have swapped jersey numbers, giving No. 3 to the new wide receiver. 

The final media viewing period for Cowboys' OTAs is Tuesday, as several questions still are left on the table before Dallas begins mandatory minicamp on June 10. 

At one point in the recent past, Tyler Smith was the rookie offensive lineman in Dallas but, entering his fourth season, he's now being looked upon to lead the way — in all ways possible. 

As Osa Odighizuwa heads into his third defensive scheme of his career, he's already seen ways he can capitalize from Matt Eberflus' scheme, and spoke about his increased leadership role on the defense. 

As Mickey Spagnola writes in his Friday column, The Star in Frisco was flooded with history today, a further reminder of the need for the Cowboys to beef up their run defense.

When Joe Milton got the news he'd been traded to the Cowboys, he was stunned, pleasantly, and is now hard at work getting acclimated during OTAs and beyond.

The former first-round pick isn't looking for a repeat of his rookie struggles and, as such, has revamped his entire offseason approach for the Cowboys.

Rotations among the offensive and defensive lines, along with options at the slot positions are some of the observations from Thursday's OTA practice. 

As DeMarvion Overshown continues to heal from his ACL, MCL and PCL tear from last season, he's optimistic about where he is in the recovery process and is already picking up valuable notes from new defensive coordinator Matt Eberflus. 

The second Cowboys OTA media viewing takes place on Thursday, and there are still questions to monitor as Brian Schottenheimer's team inches closer to mandatory minicamp. 

There are 99 days until the Cowboys' season opener, writes Mickey Spagnola in this week's Mick Shots, but there is still plenty going on, including schedule predictions, questionable QB rankings and more.
