The Dallas Cowboys’ plans for the 2025 NFL Draft remain up in the air, but it is widely believed the team will be swinging for a wide receiver or running back in the first round.
With the new rookie class coming to Dallas in a matter of weeks, those who are currently on the roster know they may find themselves in a tough training camp battle as the team figures out its depth chart.
One Cowboys player who is taking things into his own hands during the NFL offseason is third-year wide receiver Jalen Brooks, who saw limited action in 2024.

Last season, Brooks hauled in just 12 catches for 177 yards and one touchdown, but the former seventh-round pick is doing everything he can to improve ahead of the 2025 campaign.

Brooks showed flashes during training camp and the preseason last year, so we’ll have to see if Diamond can unlock his potential.
With the Cowboys expected to select a receiver early in the upcoming draft, Brooks will have to put in the work during OTAs and minicamp to fight for a roster spot.
