Dak Prescott's contract situation highlights Cowboys' offseason storylines

David Helman breaks down several important items on Dallas' to-do list that may get addressed in the next few weeks.

Posts career-best campaign Brown caught 43 of 73 targets for 555 yards and three touchdowns over 16 regular-season games in 2022.

Impact The 27-year-old came into the season with little fanfare and little career production on his resume, but Brown took advantage of a threadbare depth chart behind CeeDee Lamb early in the season to establish himself as a legitimate NFL receiving threat, posting an 18-274-1 line on 27 targets over the first four games of 2022 despite mostly working with backup QB Cooper Rush. Brown's numbers declined from that point once Michael Gallup rejoined the lineup, but he still flashed some upside later in the year, hauling in 85 yards against the Texans in Week 14 before catching two TDs from Dak Prescott in Week 15 against the Jaguars. An unrestricted free agent in the offseason, Brown's breakout could draw interest from other clubs and price him out of the Cowboys' 2023 plans.

Just one grab against Washington Brown caught one of six targets for 10 yards in Sunday's loss to the Commanders.

Impact He and Michael Gallup posted identical awful lines as Dak Prescott completed just 37.8 percent of his passes in the regular-season finale, leading to a season-worst performance by the Dallas offense as a whole. Brown caught only one pass in each of the last three games, ceding looks to T.Y. Hilton, and that's not likely to change in Monday's wild-card clash with the Buccaneers.

JANUARY 9, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Role dwindles Saturday Brown caught one of two targets for five yards in Saturday's win over the Eagles.

Impact One week after Brown tied his career high with six catches in a two-touchdown performance, he was basically an afterthought in the Dallas offense and watched T.Y. Hilton haul in a huge 52-yard grab in his Cowboys debut. His blocking skills still had him on the field for 55 offensive snaps (76.4 percent), third among Dallas wideouts and well ahead of Hilton's 11, but the additional competition for targets from Dak Prescott will make Brown even more difficult to rely upon from a fantasy perspective.

Ready for Saturday Brown (foot) doesn't have a designation for Saturday's game versus the Eagles, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.

Impact After being listed as limited on the Cowboys' first two practice reports of the week due to a foot injury, Brown managed to log every rep at Thursday's session, paving the way for him to make his 14th appearance of the season in 15 chances. He's hit a bit of a hot streak of late, gathering in 10 of 15 targets for 134 yards and two touchdowns over the last two contests. Brown may find the going tough, though, Saturday against Philadelphia's No. 1 ranked pass defense (172.4 yards per game).

Remains limited Wednesday Brown (foot) was a limited practice participant Wednesday, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.

Impact One day removed from being listed as limited on the Cowboys' first Week 16 injury report due to a foot issue, Brown maintained that activity level Wednesday. He'll have one more chance to get back to full participation Thursday, at which point the team may clarify his availability ahead of Saturday's showdown with the Eagles. Brown has put together two straight productive outings, amounting to 10 catches (on 15 targets) for 134 yards and two touchdowns.

Tending to foot issue Brown was listed as limited by a foot injury on Tuesday's practice estimate, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.

Impact After a productive first four weeks of the season (18-274-1 line on 27 targets), Brown didn't surpass 50 receiving yards or score a touchdown in any of his next seven appearances. Over the last two games, though, he's found a groove with quarterback Dak Prescott, as he's hauled in 10 of 15 passes for 134 yards and two touchdowns. With a health concern plaguing Brown to begin Week 15 prep, his status should be watched as the week continues to get a sense of his potential to play Saturday versus the Eagles.

Two scores in loss Brown recorded six receptions on nine targets for 49 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 40-34 loss to Jacksonville.

Impact Brown surprisingly led Dallas in targets, though he fell behind CeeDee Lamb in both receptions and yards. The highlights of his performance came on his pair of touchdown grabs, which were from one and 13 yards away. Brown appears to have surpassed Michael Gallup in priority for targets, as he has 15 looks combined across his last two games, resulting in 134 yards and two scores.

Strong showing against Houston Brown caught four of six targets for 85 yards in Sunday's 27-23 win over the Texans.

Impact Most of that production came on a 51-yard reception to convert a third-and-13 early in the second quarter, but Brown was also clutch on the Cowboys' final series as he made a diving 18-yard catch with just 78 seconds left to help set up Ezekiel Elliott's game-winning score. It was Brown's best performance since he posted a 5-91-1 line back in Week 2, and it appears as though the sixth-year wideout has earned Dak Prescott's trust. Even with James Washington now active, Brown should retain a complementary role in the Dallas passing game for a Week 15 clash with the Jaguars.

Two catches against Colts Brown caught both his targets for 15 yards in Sunday's win over the Colts.

Impact Both catches came in the first quarter while the game was still in doubt, before the Cowboys' running game and defense began to dominate. Brown hasn't caught more than two passes in a game since Week 7, and with James Washington (foot) back at practice and Odell Beckham coming in for a visit, his role isn't like to grow.

DECEMBER 5, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Two grabs against Minnesota Brown caught both his targets for 42 yards in Sunday's 40-3 win over the Vikings.

Impact The Cowboys didn't need to attack downfield much with Ezekiel Elliott and Tony Pollard accounting for two touchdowns each out of the backfield, but Brown still made an impact with a 35-yard catch in the third quarter that set up Elliott's second score of the day. Brown hasn't seen a significant role in the offense since Michael Gallup returned from a knee injury, and his snaps and targets could all but disappear down the stretch if Odell Beckham does end up landing in Dallas.
