Mounting injuries put the Dallas Cowboys in a tough spot early in the 2020 NFL season

Expectations were high for the Dallas Cowboys heading into the 2020 NFL season. They may not have made the postseason in 2019, but they had the looks of a team that probably should have.

Dak Prescott was coming off the best season of his NFL career, and he was set to be paired for the first time with Mike McCarthy at head coach rather than Jason Garrett. The Cowboys went out and got who some believed to be the best wide receiver in the 2020 NFL Draft, CeeDee Lamb, at tremendous value in the middle of the first round, giving Dallas a top-three wide receiver group that could go toe-to-toe with any trio in the NFL.
