It’s time for the last preseason game of 2018. That’s right... the last preseason game. One more time and then we are into the regular NFL season. The Cowboys will travel to Houston for a game likely to feature a bunch of depth players who are desperately battling for a spot on the 53-man roster.
This will be an important game for people like quarterback Mike White, who is trying make his case to remain on the roster. Rico Gathers is looking for his chance to shine. Some of the backup linemen will be putting in an audition not only for the Cowboys, but other teams who might be looking to add players.
There’s a good battle at running back between Bo Scarbrough and Darius Jackson. Lance Lenoir and Deonte Thompson are trying to make their case at wide receiver. In the secondary, a whole horde of corners and safeties get one final opportunity to hang on. Sure it may not be the prettiest game to watch, but for some of these guys it might be their final go around.
Here’s your info for the game.
