2024 Fantasy Outlook
Overshown appears poised for a big role with the Cowboys as a rookie after being selected in the third round of the 2023 Draft, but a torn ACL cost him his entire rookie season. Fully recovered heading into training camp, the Texas product has strong coverage skills and can fly to the ball, but he'll compete with 2024 third-round pick Marist Liufau for a starting spot at linebacker alongside Eric Kendricks and Damone Clark. Read Past Outlooks
Leading tackler in Week 1 win
Overshown recorded a team-high 11 tackles (five solo), including 1.0 sacks, in Sunday's win over the Browns.
ANALYSIS
The Cowboys' defense simply overwhelmed the Browns' offense, and Overshown's speed was on full display on his sack, as he closed on a scrambling Deshaun Watson too quickly for the QB to react and get rid of the ball. Overshown, a third-round pick in 2023, missed his entire rookie season due to a torn ACL, but he is 100 percent healthy to begin 2024 and figures to have a significant role in Mike Zimmer's defense.

The Cowboys continue to stockpile impressive young athletes at linebacker, with 2023 third-round pick Overshown joining Damone Clark and Jabril Cox as players fighting for snaps around veteran Leighton Vander Esch and versatile game-wrecker Micah Parsons. As a converted safety, Overshown has plus coverage skills, but he'll need to get stronger to take on NFL blockers and carve out a full-time role.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could be key player in 2024
Overshown will have a chance to carve out a prominent role in an unproven Dallas linebacker corps in 2024, per Bradley Locker of Pro Football Focus.
ANALYSIS
Overshown was a third-round draft pick of the Cowboys in 2023 but missed his entire rookie season due to a preseason ACL tear. Once fully recovered, the linebacker out of Texas will compete for playing time against 2024 third-round draft pick Marist Liufau and free-agent addition Eric Kendricks in a defense that lost perennial Pro Bowl linebacker Leighton Vander Esch to retirement.
