Charles Snowden suspended by NFL for first 3 games of 2026 season – Tommy Yarrish, DallasCowboys.com
The Dallas Cowboys pass rush depth took a hit ahead of the season.
Cowboys outside linebacker Charles Snowden has been suspended by the NFL for the first three games of the 2026 regular season, according to the league wire.
According to reports from NFL Media, Snowden’s suspension is part of a violation of the league’s personal conduct policy stemming from a DUI in 2024.
The league released the following on Snowden’s suspension:
“Dallas’ Charles Snowden, DE, Virginia, has been suspended by the Commissioner
for the first three games of the 2026 season. He is eligible to participate in all preseason activities, including games; his suspension will take effect as of the roster reduction to 53 players.”
Aside from being able to fully participate in training camp in Oxnard as well as Dallas’ three preseason games, Snowden would not be able to play for the Cowboys in the regular season until Week 4 on the road against the Houston Texans.
Snowden, 28, signed with the Cowboys on June 18 after trying out for the team during Dallas’ mandatory minicamp.
Snowden has spent the last two years with the Raiders, where he started 18 games and played in 31 total for Las Vegas. Previously, Snowden played two games with the Chicago Bears in 2021 after going undrafted out of Virginia.
The Cowboys depart for training camp in Oxnard, California on Monday, July 27.
Cowboys hope to satisfy star DT Quinnen Williams’ ‘hunger’ for his first trip to playoffs – Joseph Hoyt, Dallas Morning News
It’s hard to believe a player of Quinnen Williams caliber has never been to the playoffs.
Cowboys defensive tackle Quinnen Williams recently took up something a lot of people in their late 20s do. He picked up a club and started golfing.
Since starting about a year ago, he’s found it’s hard to stop, saying during minicamp last month that the hobby has been super addicting.
“I’m going to golf a little bit on this little break,” Williams said, referring to the five weeks between the team’s minicamp in June and the start of training camp in Oxnard, Calif., in late July. He then paused to listen to another question before changing his expected golf plans.
“Probably every day,” Williams said, before pausing and changing his plans one more time. “For sure every day.”
Golf has been a change for Williams in his personal life. This coming season, Williams hopes he can find a change in his professional life too.
Williams has had a unique career to this point. The 28-year-old was selected third overall in 2019 and has lived up to expectations. He’s top-10 among the highest-paid defensive tackles in the NFL, despite signing his extension in 2023. He was named a first-team All-Pro in 2022. He’s made the Pro Bowl four times in his seven-year career.
His individual success, however, hasn’t mirrored team success. Williams has never played in the postseason. He’s never really been that close to it, either.
The Jets averaged just over five wins per season in his six full seasons there. The most wins they had in a single year was seven — the same number of wins the Cowboys had last year when they acquired Williams in a blockbuster trade at the deadline.
The inverse relationship between personal and team success is unique. In fact, every active NFL player with five Pro Bowls in their career — one more than Williams currently has to his name — has played in at least one playoff game in their career. Research shows that Williams and New York Giants edge rusher Brian Burns are the only active players with four Pro Bowls who have yet to make the playoffs.
Another Dallas Cowboys Wide Receiver is Drawing Interest From a CFL Team – Mike Moraitis, Cowboys on SI
If things don’t work out for Denzel Mims in Dallas, he could land elsewhere in the CFL.
We can add another Dallas Cowboys wide receiver to the list of those drawing interest from a Canadian Football League team.
The CFL’s Toronto Argonauts announced Monday that they have added Cowboys wideout Denzel Mims to their negotiation list.
This means the Argonauts have the exclusive rights over other CFL teams to negotiate with Mims if he fails to make the Cowboys’ roster or land with another NFL team and has interest in playing in the league, according to CFL rules.
“Each CFL team maintains a Negotiation List of up to 45 players who are currently either unsigned or are playing in the NFL, in another professional league, or in college,” the CFL”s website states. “Teams hold exclusive CFL negotiating rights with players on their lists, and those players can be added, traded or removed at any time.”
To be clear, this does not mean that Mims has any interest in the Argonauts, and oftentimes players aren’t even aware they have been added, so this is a highly informal thing.
A former second-round pick of the New York Jets in 2020, Mims had a rough go of it in the NFL and hasn’t played a snap in the league since 2022. He has spent time with two different UFL teams the previous two years.
The Cowboys signed Mims last month, but he’s facing an uphill climb to make the roster out of training camp, so it wouldn’t be shocking to see him land in the CFL at some point in 2026.
Even at the house Jerry Jones built, Dallas Cowboys owner makes way for FIFA and its World Cup VVIPs – Henry Bushnell, The Athletic
Everyone got to experience the beauty of Jerry World during the World Cup.
Overlooking midfield at AT&T Stadium is a private suite synonymous with its boss. Jerry Jones, the all-powerful owner of the NFL’s Dallas Cowboys, presides over this building known to many Americans as “Jerry World,” and watches every Cowboys home game from the same favorite perch, that luxury box on the 50-yard line.
But on Tuesday, when this 80,000-seat colossus hosts a World Cup semifinal, Jones will be elsewhere — because FIFA has overtaken his space.
Gianni Infantino, world soccer governing body FIFA’s president, will instead be in, or near, Jones’ suite.
And Jones will be in a separate spot on the stadium’s “Silver Level,” as he has been throughout this World Cup, in a very unfamiliar position: outside the spotlight.
Jones hasn’t complained about it. In fact, “it’s all worked out really, really well,” Chad Estis, the Cowboys’ EVP of business operations, said of the World Cup.
