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.

Undergoes knee surgery
Overshown underwent a successful procedure Wednesday to repair the ACL, MCL and PCL in his right knee, Jordan Schultz of Fox Sports reports.
ANALYSIS
After the surgery, there's optimism Overshown could return to game action as soon as the middle of the 2025 season, an encouraging prognosis considering the nature of the injury he suffered in Week 14. In the meantime, promising rookie third-rounder Marist Liufau projects to continue to play a major role at linebacker.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
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.
