The NFL’s Sunday schedule of Week 1 games ends in East Rutherford, N.J., with an intradivision battle between the Cowboys and Giants.
Dallas enters this one coming off a 7-9-1 season, second to the Eagles in the NFC East and missing the playoffs for a second consecutive year. They now enter Year 2 of Brian Schottenheimer’s reign as head coach, having traded for outside linebacker Rashan Gary, franchise-tagging wide receiver George Pickens and re-signing defensive tackle Quinnen Williams to a monster extension. As they do every year that quarterback Dak Prescott is healthy, expectations are again high for the Cowboys heading into 2026.
