Carrick agrees two-year deal to remain Man Utd head coach
Michael Carrick has agreed to a two-year deal to remain Manchester United's head coach.
DeMarvion Overshown, Dallas Cowboys linebacker, claims he is fully healthy and ready to showcase his skills in the upcoming season. He believes he hasn't yet shown his best performance due to past injuries.
This is quite the confident statement to make.
DeMarvion Overshown has played just 19 games in three seasons. Knee injuries have kept the Dallas Cowboys linebacker off the field for far too much time, but he believes thatâs about to change.
Overshown spoke to reporters during the teamâs voluntary workouts and said heâs completely healthy, calling it a blessing. He then issued a statement that the rest of the league should pay attention to, claiming we havenât seen him at his best yet.
âI feel like everybody knows when Iâm healthy, Iâm one of the best linebackers in the league. Thatâs not to toot my own horn, but the film and the stats speaks for itself when Iâm on the field. Being healthy is the number one way to stay on the field and be able to do what I do,â Overshown said, via Jon Machota of The Athletic.
âThe fact that I get to go through this whole offseason as a healthy man, and coming into training camp healthy, I feel like people ainât seen my best yet. So, I know itâs going to be one of my best years.â
George Pickens continues to show his loyalty to Dallas despite his contract situation.
DeMarvion Overshown stated he is completely healthy and believes he hasn't shown his best yet, emphasizing that being healthy is crucial for his performance.
DeMarvion Overshown has played just 19 games in three seasons due to knee injuries.
Overshown expects the 2026 season to be one of his best years, stating that he feels he is one of the best linebackers when healthy.
Overshown's return to full health could significantly enhance the Cowboys' defense, as he believes his skills have yet to be fully displayed.

Will Cowboyswide receiver George Pickens show up for mandatory offseason work? It remains to be seen for a receiver who signed his franchise tag but likely wants what the Cowboys currently donât intend to give him: a long-term deal. That wonât stop his work with quarterback Dak Prescott, however.
Prescott, speaking Thursday from annual Reliant Home Run Derby in Frisco, said he and Pickens have thrown this offseason together even though Pickens didnât show up for voluntary workouts earlier this month. Prescott said he and Pickens will also continue to throw together as needed, which isnât abnormal from what Prescott has done with other receivers during his decade-long career as the starting quarterback of the Cowboys.
Prescott also hinted about Pickensâ potential plans for later in the offseason.
âObviously he signed the tag, so when he has to be there and ready to play, heâs going to be there,â Prescott said. âHeâs a hell of a talent.â
Pickens proved that a season ago.
Pickens made the Pro Bowl last season for the first time in his four-year career. It was a breakout year for him after the Cowboys acquired him from the Steelers. He set career highs in all three major receiving categories, finishing with 93 receptions for 1,429 yards and nine touchdowns.
Caleb Downs is as advertised so far in Dallas.
FRISCO, Texas â Nearly a month after the 2026 NFL Draft, the Cowboysâ rookie class has begun integrating with the veterans and new additions to Dallasâ roster.
At the forefront of the newcomers is Caleb Downs, who Dallas selected with the 11th overall pick. Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott said at the teamâs charity home run derby Thursday night that heâs already spent some time around Downs and is looking forward to seeing what he can accomplish in his highly anticipated rookie season.
âI love that way thatâs he wired and Iâm excited for him,â Prescott said. âHeâs got some great vets, whether it be myself to ask questions to or great vets on that defensive side now to help make sure that he gets off to a great start.â
Being a first-round pick comes with a lot of pressure and expectations, and the Cowboys have not been shy about their praise for Downs and what they believe he can do in new defensive coordinator Christian Parkerâs system. Downsâ teammates have already seen first-hand how heâs handling everything that comes with being a rookie with lofty hopes.
âHeâs a worker for sure,â Cowboys linebacker DeMarvion Overshown said. âHe wants to get better every day. His film speaks for itself. I feel like he came in already with the media talking about heâs a first rounder and theyâre expecting a lot from him. He just kind of disregarded it, just coming in working every day hard. Just want to help do whatever to help the team [get] better.
Another interesting nugget about the Christian Parker hire.
Dallas Cowboysâ Brian Schottenheimer wanted Christian Parker because heâs struggled against his mentors
According to Sports Illustratedâs Albert Breer, who was asked about Parkerâs potential impact and scheme, the Cowboys wanted Parker so badly because of wide-ranging experience in great NFL defenses, but more specifically, in defenses that Schottenheimer struggled to coach against.
âFirst off, itâs not likeallof the Cowboysâ new defensive coordinatorâs NFL experience came under Vic Fangioâhe worked under the defensive guru in Denver in 2021 and Philly the past two years, while also coaching with Mike Pettine, Ejiro Evero and Vance Joseph as his coordinators in the pros. So, itâs fair to say that Parker will have his own twist on the Fangio scheme, and itâs also true that other teams have looked at poaching Parker because of who he is, not just who heâs worked with.
âThat said, part of the appeal for the Cowboys is getting the Fangio system, which has been one of the more difficult to coach against in the NFL. And Brian Schottenheimer knows how tough it is, having been in the division going head-to-head with Fangio the past two years, and also seeing Brandon Staleyâs version of it, in the NFC West in [2020].â
The more things change the more they stay the same.
The NFL sets up Cowboys for a brutal start to the year
Between Weeks 3 and 5, the Cowboysâ 2026 schedule features a three-game run in a 12-day stretch. Thatâs never much fun and this time, it includes a trip to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil that should take about 24 hours there and back.
Following that trip, the Cowboys will hit the road to Houston for a noon game against the stingy and physical Texans defense. Usually, the league tries to get teams a bye or a long week after a trip abroad. Dallas doesnât even get an afternoon game here.
And to pile things on, the Cowboys get a short week against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers the following week. How is the team going to handle it? Dak Prescott is betting on experience.
Dak Prescott says this is nothing new for the Cowboys
Speaking at the annual Reliant Home Run Derby, Prescott confidently claimed the Cowboys can handle the travel burden for a simple reason. They do it every year.
âThe travel will be tough but itâs part of growing this game,â Prescott admitted via Jon Machota (The Athletic). âWeâll manage, weâll figure out the best way to take care of our bodies. Weâve been a part of three games in 11 days every year pretty much with our Thanksgiving Day games. Nothing new, just having to do it earlier [in the season].â
